resurrect

04/21/2019

 

flawed in our learning 

flawed in what we became

flawed in our indoctrination 

into the human race

 

many have tried to implore  

so our living body will behave

in spite of that, warn us

so our soul won't go to waste

 

we heeded not their sacrifice 

and "gluttony" became our motto

even when we call for mercy

it's not to mend our ways

 

self interest is our only aim

feeling proud of ill begotten gains 

unwilling to accept the blame

commit heinous crimes in HIS name

 

as our number keeps on growing 

more entrenched we have become

fringes of extremes are emboldened

crown of insanity is being woven

 

we await HIS resurrection 

to take care of HIS creation

unwilling to realize that, firstly,

it's ourselves, we need to

RESURRECT 

 

 

 

LET THE SAVIOR REST IN PEACE

  • dusk arising

    Well he ain't coming, he never said he was did he, that was a MAN MADE myth to gain control of your mind but the rest of it i agree with for the benefit of mankind.
    It wasn't a god or a religion which invented goodwill to mankind you know. It was humanity.

      It's time to burn the shroud of ignorance, and take responsibility for our own actions.

      Thnx

      • Michael Edwards

        I'm with dusk - and the bottom line as the poem so elegantly expresses it is that we are our own saviours.

        an interesting and maybe for some a controversial statement, perspective, argument ... interesting regardless... Neville

        Controversy is enlightenment
