This is what I see..
Folder:
Political Poems "Now I lay me down to sleep"
Missiles
Crack vials
Boeing 767's
Fallujah bound
Destruction sounds
Annihilating soldiers by the pound
Far away in the Middle East
Sand crocodiles eating OUR world out of peace
Young leaders of our future
Signing away their lives
DAMN a quicker trip to heaven
No one knew the present
Would conceive so much demise..
"I pray the Lord my soul to keep"
Little brown baby boys and baby girls
Ghetto bricks and blighted houses
The broken foundations of THEIR little worlds
Cement blocks falling faster..
Corporate stocks a tumbling disaster..
Terror
Fear
And anxiety
Raping the FAITH of our society
"I pray the Lord my soul to keep"
Death toll rising yet once again
The economy falling FASTER than the twins
LIFE merely a scab upon the knees of THIS reality
Due to the burdens of existence
Outweighing US so heavily
Politically imprisoned
Institutionalized by a deceptive disguise
And God on trial by they who won't listen?
How powerfully ignorant it is to deny
What the Bible proclaims
And - what the history of the Testaments
Foreshadow and ordain
"Father PLEASE hear me when I say to you again,
I pray to you Lord my soul to keep.."
Soon the bow is broken
And - the body is taken
Weary limbs hit the ground
Another SORE is awakened
DAMN - here we go again
Camouflaged khakis
Klu Klux Klan
Sheet wrapped Iraqis
A public service assassin
Better known as THE MAN
Cotton fields
Battlefields
Inner city violence kills
Shackles and chains
Lives taken in vain
Chains of pain
A heritage robbed of its bloodline
And its name
So much history soiled and stained
So many colors manipulated by shame
Scud missiles
Crack vials
Street sweepers
And nuclear heat seekers
Revisited by a history
Of pestilence
Ignorance
And politically corrupted miseries
Confined by a nation
Complacent
Slothful
And in denial of Satan?s invasions
"If I should DIE before I wake"
This country blind to the treasons
Of elected officials qualified to deceive
Qualified for the WRONG reasons
"This sweet land of liberty.."
And ill-advised diplomacy
The BUSHES should have been cut
When the chance was for the taking
The sentence?
Another four-year bid
GOD only knows what the beast is m a n d a t i n g
The extinction of man
Approaching quicker than nuclear gas in the wind
This transition of Adam from purgatory unto hell
His faith gambled so much
The devil wouldn't pitch his a$$ a sale
As he tries to dictate seconds of a clock
Filled with borrowed time
Questing for a victory
Of slaughter & revenge
When God has plainly stated, "That VENGEANCE is mine"
Morality a NECESSITY
Compromised and removed when it SHOULDN'T be
Bended knees slammed to the ground
If you don?t how to pray
Then you?d BETTER learn right now
Tainted souls destined for hell by the pound
So many lives wasted
Due to bad decisions
And the disobedience
Of God's munitions
Hence - we plummet like the twins
Hence - weapons of mass destruction?
What his lies began
Our lives will surely end
Innocence destroyed and deployed by hate
Swallowed alive
All because a choice was made to forsake..
- - Get your house in order..
And Pray and accept His Grace
Cuz when He arrives?
You WILL think the enemy has attacked THIS place..
"I pray the Lord my soul to take.."
I pray the Lord OUR souls to take..
?Amen..?
