Left To Lament
The world is floundering; our agony grows;
our silence has become assent;
reaping the whirlwind; a generation, sows;
the righteous are left to lament.
The rich and famous, live like fatted cattle;
paying little or no attention to the masses;
while the war mongers, love to sabre rattle;
punishing the poor with their taxes.
The rich, long ago, sought to cull the herd;
demanding population controls;
killing the unborn; was no longer absurd;
murdering innocent souls.
Today’s generation has a victim mentality;
no one else really matters;
without victim status; we’re due for fatality;
or forced to live in tatters.
Actors who live; by just playing a role;
look down upon physical labor;
how can pretenders uplift your soul;
they are food; devoid of flavor.
Wisdom comes from those who are vigilant;
and willing speak out the truth;
those who remain silent, become impotent;
such fools are often aloof.
The world is floundering; evil has grown;
resistence becomes stuck in cement;
reaping a whirlwind; by generations, sown;
leaving the righteous left to lament.
