So damn powerful it makes my heart bleed because it\'s true we will never be rid of evil no matter how much we spread the love, and tit for tat will never solve anything. Superb poetry.

David Wakeling said:

Thank you bro.I think you hit the snail on the shell.Religion and Faith who can understand it all? But with a little Sympathy empathy and compassion we might just make it through.Thanks for commenting.

Empathy ,Sympathy and Compassion,
Bobby O said:

Wow! It’s a twisted truth one must unravel to see religion and Faith as totally virtuous and should stand without question, a tenet I do not fully subscribe. I love the questions this piece may raise and I also love the phrasing that moves the fable. As always, a very good read.

To dance in the kitchen, that was the line that brought me sudden hope and I think you for that. Nice write great read , you got it going on.

God must be so proud.
orchidee said:

We state our own beliefs, not trying to \'defend God\' though. He may think it laughable if mere humans are trying to defend Him.
It\'s understandable to question, seeing things as in your poem. And what about Job in the Old Testament?
BlessedbyGod puts it well I feel.

Bobby O said:

It’s good to shake some trees and the validity here is one I want to scream whenever a certain self prophetelizing soul rings my ear with fervor so tilted that I can’t hear a message.

God must be so proud.
David Wakeling said:

So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.
Way to go God intelligent design

God must be so proud.
BlessedbyGod said:

All those horrible things that happen isn\'t of God, it\'s of Satan and we are living in satans domain, not Hell, but he still controls this world, God cast lucifer from heaven because the devil is so vile and evil,
Yes innocent die, yes bad things happen to good and innocent people, but God is love and all the good in this world, not the evil

Bribery and Lies.
AlitaOpal said:

Sounds like the family I grew up in, but I made sure that the family I made was far away from this emotional guilt.. it was traumatic for me... But at some point I had to snap out of the ideas proposed to me by those who call themselves my parents.. I developed boundaries and in turn got their respect through what they called rebelliousness, that which I call breaking the curse..
I really liked this

I think in 1957 a pregnancy in a new marriage would have been celebrated, not terminated!
Certainly not the norm.
