God Meant Sins To Prevent

what will be theory
times have been sad and dreary
they could be cheery

what is perturbing
politician disturbing
we must be curbing

what God would have meant
sinning will always prevent
do need His consent

what they had inferred
things will become untethered
that should be detered

Premium MemberThe Force of Gravity

Attraction of the force of gravity
Prevents us from falling out into space
What will prevent we mankind 
From falling into evils
Education maybe
Religion maybe
Our conscience maybe
Maybe we're born innocent and harmless
And we gradually pick up evils because of greeds and temptations 
Maybe we're born a saint
But finally lost in the fight against evils
Whatever it's 
A salvation by the almighty God is needed
Just like the enormous force of gravity

Premium MemberThe Two Parallel Lines

Two parallel lines will never meet
Even to the infinity
All the evils and greeds of mankind 
Are preventing us from finding 
The truths and logics of life
We are travelling in two parallel lines 
With God and the universe
Truths and logics are hidden and twisted 
Many politicians always prevent us 
From finding the truths and logics of life
So that they can overrule the true world
The truths and logics of life
So that they can control, monitor and dominate the people
We have to be alert and wise
We have to divert our directions
Will we

Prevent Instance

Prevent Instance

What we will need is a preclusion,
Which will always prevent effusion,
And left out,
Without a doubt,
So we can avoid all the confusion.

Prevent From Doings Things Bad

Prevent From Doings Things Bad

From doing things bad we should prevent,
Them being sure to obtain God's consent;
Rules  read;
Prayers said,
And now we understand  what He meant.

Barbara Bush ceremony was something else.
Incredible pipe organ.

How To Prevent School Shootings

How To Prevent School Shootings

By Elton Camp

Americans, with guns have a love affair
To speak against them, only the brave dare

Vicious school shootings don’t faze ’em
They love guns and continue to praise ’em

There is a simple solution, they say
Post guards so it won’t be that way

With armed guards at the school door
There won’t be such shootings anymore

But here’s a reality they won’t face
Shootings continue at an army base

With armed guards there, galore
Shootings continue just as before

If a military base we can’t protect
School security we can’t expect

Such deaths are the price we pay
So gun lovers can have their way

“Guns don’t kill,” they will prate
Deaths continue at an alarming rate

To Prevent a Disaster

A deal-killer was needed to prevent a disaster,
the service company couldn't exist anymore
if the president hadn't taken a lower bid;
it had relied on the work force for over twenty years,
and it could have hurt the employees who needed an increase,
rather than the employer who had a constant cash flow.


They had to make a choice...accept and sign the new contract,
and stay in business for another five years, or more;
from the looks on everybody's face, it didn't sound pleasant,
but who would  have chosen the unemployment line? 
The employer felt terribly for the bad deal-killer, but also a relief
saving thousands of jobs around Christmastime.


To compensate the workers for their loyalty, the employer offered them
a monthly bonus and open overtime for everybody willing to work hard,
so that deal-killer proved to be extremely beneficial... 
coming at a time when extra cash could have brought more gifts
that they couldn't afford in the first place, had the deal-killer been denied...
and they wouldn't have wished one another, " Happy Holidays! "

Wasteland Cannot Prevent

The barrier of distance cannot minimise or dim 
  Your beauty or the magnitude of all that you possess; 
Though miles of separation lie between us cold and grim, 
  The aura of your nature overwhelms me nonetheless. 
Environment cannot contain, wasteland cannot prevent 
  The blossom of the magnet dream, the visions of your face; 
For I am ever counting down the days without relent, 
  Until we are together in adjacent time and space.
