Where do I begin?
Forgive my clichés
but, what can I say?
Refusing to listen
Refusing to speak
Refusing to touch
Maiming the weak.
Living hatred instead
of Love;
throwing dimes at the
homeless like we
believe it’s enough.

Making bombs on a
huge salary, then
taking your kids to
the art gallery. And
all the while they
won't have a clue
that when the bombs
fall, it was you who
blew them away;
masquerade betrayed.

Making light of the
less fortunate, then
blaming them for
their hellish torment.
And all the while they
haven’t a clue where
to go or what to do.
We have the means;
we have the time, but
we’d rather spend ours’
drinking red wine.

Get off your rear and
stop the preaching,
telling me that you
know Jesus. People are
dying ‘cause we refuse
to act, spewing politics
like it’s God who attacks.
And all the while we
haven’t a clue
that God is me,
that God is you.

Look in the mirror…
Look deep in your eyes…
What do you see?
Are you blinded by light?
As if you could lay
it all on a shelf,
when you abandon
one,
you abandon yourself.

Ok………
Now…..
Let's speak about LOVE;
When all is said,
when all is done,
have no doubt...

There is only ONE.

We're all guilty.

I like this poem so much wished I had written it... ~*~
