Best Barricades Poems

We join the public social functions
To fill our time with emptiness,
And list our names with organizations

Barricades Or Bridges?
By Miracle Man
6/13/2024

All believers we’re appointed,
to be God’s witness.
By our words and actions,
we will prove our fitness.

To our friends, family,
and to a lost and hurting nation.
