Poem, Reality in America. Maybe the World?

AwHec8

European Patriarchal White Supremacy Power.

That thinks if they say it,

Then it is truth.

Because in their mind,

god is on their side.

Because they are the chosen 1's.

I say what god? A god of LIES?

 

You want to be a person,

A believer after God's own heart?

Speak Truth in Love,

By Seeking Love in Truth.

Care about, Care for those,

Who God truly Loves, ALL!

Period.

  • Comment from author about the poem: As I watch the propaganda channel called Fox "news" I wonder why people believe the LIES? Is it like this around the world with Fox? Nothing less than a propaganda channel for the very religious far right wing nuts? Do people really believe the LIE? But I digress to change the channel before I put my other shoe through my last remaining TV. Yes I put 1 shoe through my bedroom TV. Go Freaking Figure. Don Oh yeah for those who say what God, what Truth, what Love, who is ALL? I say that if we could get past the ugly we all are to the beauty we all carry within us (the very breath of God Himself) then maybe we could see the beauty we all are, That is each & every 1 of us carries a piece of the puzzle to this thing called Life.

    My partner says the same of bbc news here his words full of shit but hey I chose right now not to watch the news we are in a lockdown here life is depressing enough without shit news. So may be a world wide thing

    • AwHec8

      Same here as far as lockdown. I can't help myself though every once in awhile I take a look at what these "news" organizations have to say. Thing is I am old enough to remember when mostly it was facts reported, not so much commentary or talking heads telling me how I should look at or how I should feel about what they are reporting (All Propaganda). That's why for here (USA) I look at what the news says about us in other Countries. That usually gives me the accurate picture.

      Change the channel seems like a good move, Don.
      Have to get your news from somewhere....
      "every 1 of us carries a piece of the puzzle to this thing called Life."
      Thumbs up there, mate - but mostly only a piece. A multiplicity of views required here...

      • AwHec8

        Why Thank You Doggerel Dave for your comments.
        I totally agree with what you said in your Post.
        We all have a part to play.
        And mostly it was a rant type Poem. Just blowing off a bit.
        Directed at Hypocrisy. Which I hate especially in my own self.
        And Yes I do have to buy another TV when a bag of money falls out of the sky. LOL 🤣

        Truth is that things that so many of us do not hear on the news, there is a truth out there but it is so hard to find, just believe in yourself.

          Thank You Goldfinch60 for your comment. You are right that we have to search out the matters of this here world. And have that rock that keeps us anchored as well. Like I said it was on me that I didn't tune it all out before I ended up exasperated by it all. Don

          'Speak Truth in Love,
          By Seeking Love in Truth.
          Care about, Care for those,
          Who God truly Loves, ALL!
          Period.'
          now this on t-shirt is worth displaying with pride,
          indeed all, means All: just three letters, like the deity they claim to fear..
          I feel your passion, though I will just say - that most modern day news outlets (in all forms) are propaganda vehicles,
          utilised for delivering polarising political ideologies and so all their truth's are delivered tailor-made by political vindictively shallow mind's..
          its all a game, so that we lowly laymen - majority, can never know what to interpret as veracity's words and they
          get to keep us on our back foot, hesitant - to take action: for in every direction we see pitfalls looming large..
          until, that is we simply 'Choose' to stop listening: to all the BS, emanating from every political platform and we just look outside to the reality on our doorstep and start to see veracity with our own eyes, then and only then can we truly begin to try and change that bleak horizon in our vision..
          (sorry if you find my words offensive or disrespectful in any way, just sharing my 2 cents worth, please ignore it if you want,
          but I thank you for inspiring my little scribbled reply dear poet)

          • AwHec8

            Amen. And Thank You for your comments L. B. Mek.

            Side note: Actually when someone speaks from the heart, like you do and especially if it stirs up fire in me or gives me pause to think differently, then absolutely Love it. In fact every post on here brought more thought to my mind from All who posted. Which to me is a good thing, when we share our thoughts, ourselves. So much appreciated that you ALL would be so honest & open. Don
