A Petrchan sonnet)
The. Dems or ‘cons two sides of the same bit
Vote I would never do. A waste of time
I have better things to do‘on my dime
Both parties suck ass and they stink like s*it
Seesaw politics has played out it’s game
Seesaw politics done, that is my view
What ‘s a voter to do,I’ll show you
Seesaw politics today is so lame
The best move is a no-confidence vote
Two party system candidates are crap
Do not bother voting and do not gloat
The two party system has gone rotten
Using Trump as a scape goat is so sad
The seesaw system should be forgotten
They're people not animals
Not to be singled out
Because of the life they
Choose to live, not living
A life that goes by other
People standards, LGBTQ
People has been around when
I was a small child, it's now that
They're not afraid to be who
They truly are, it's their life
Stop the hate and leave them alone
Some parents want a scape goat
When I was young, there was a child
He would always play with the girls
And not the boys, even back then
He use to act like a girl and
He had five brothers who tried to
Force him to be a boy but it didn't work
He grew up being the same way he acted
As a young boy
Everything you did to me
Is already done to you
What a weak man it takes to rape
You can never take my essence
In fact your muddy mutters rather
Sound like desperate crimson cries of an infant
One who had too little of this too much of that
And still your parents are not your scape goat
You choose to try and take what is lacking inside of you
You refuse to strive and make your soul worthy of a view
that even sinners have a shot at redemption and forgiveness
So as sordid sips and Freudian slips you dip inside ME
trying to find YOU...oh lost soul.
Here is what happened to me
after the rain shame and defeat dissolved
I remained a level of anger that is
quiet and reserved but strong as in an activist
You can not take my innocence for your strength
It does not work that way for I am a magnet
I pull your strength and grew the balls
you wish you had to be a real power
that flesh between us is temporary
but the soul we have is eternal
and you stain yours with cruelty and lack of worth.
Eternity is very big.
It's high and wide and deep;
And most don't bother to prepare,
To take the final sleep.
We enjoy this life immensely.
We think that we're immortal,
And suddenly it's before us,
And we see the final portal.
Then it's too late for us to take,
Precautions and prepare,
To meet The Father of us all,
And see how much He cares;
When we stand before Him,
And His judgement we must bear,
Because to us His love meant little,
And we really didn't care,
That His Son became our scape goat,
As He hung upon that tree;
He suffered, bled and died like that,
To rescue you and me.
He gave so much to pay our debt,
And in return asked little,
And that's just what we gave Him,
And we really cannot quibble,
Over seeds that we have sown,
When there's no place to flee.
Our seeds have grown and now bear fruit.
We face ETERNITY.
How can I tell the truth
Not by myself but with you
Covered up categories scape goat tools
Made a lie sound like Scooby doo do
Wilma Freddie and poop
Drip down toilet bowls constipated group
Therapy shut cancelled by polar bears too
Who knew
Batteries could charge you
Energize you
Make thermal rabbits going down Alice hold you
But you recognizing butterflies fly too
Just fun boo
Did mean to scare the hell out of you
Once there was a good man called Doss, the Boss
scape goat for all, tried even by all idiot asses
no idiot will see him as intellect nor ass
all see some dimension of ignorance
bloody what ignorance could an ignorant see in doss?
Theres no greater happiness
than a feeling of joy & theres nothin
like a man thats been hurt beyond scorn a contrite heart
makes one feel reborn
those who grieve the spirit
should feel the Father when he mourns
sin is an addiction and we need rehab
if we're truly children of the light
lets remove the mask, stop conforming
to this world and givin in to the flesh
when we're led by the spirit in that
valley of the shadow of death
I swear we a mess but we still
gotta scape goat, we between 2 worlds
so its time to elope, it feels like Im
floating naw Im walkin on water
walkin by faith yeah I just crossed
the border so in the cross Ima boast
in it McDonalds Im lovin it Im feeling
so Abram yeah Im so covenant
I wish i had a wicked heart
I am fed up of being cheated
I am sick of being played
Helping you and paying me back with evil...
I am done with it.
I wanna put a stop to being taken advantage on
I wanna be stone hearted to all that come my way.
I wanna be asked a penny and offer no dime.
I wanna turn down every little request.
I wanna say "no, i don't have" and stick to it
I wanna spend all my money all on myself without giving
I am done being their scape goat.
I wanna treat every little issue in a big way openly
I wanna be strong enough to watch people beg without showing mercy.
HMMN...
As much as i try and wish for all this,
The more calm i get ...
The more i give out ...
The more gentle and meek in attitude i become ...
JUST THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT I WISHED FOR ...!
