A poem about questioning the powers that be in this world…
This is only one universe
in many…they tell us how
at a quantum level no one can predict
the path of electrons in an atom
they say it is impossible
I say they dont know God like I do
My question is this
How come at my church they keep singing the earth is the Lord’s
Looks to me like He’s losing ground here fast
Looks to me like somebody’s lying to us
About the true nature of Godhood
There are so many ways this world could end
So much control we gave away 230 years ago
Shadowy puppeteers got a chokehold on Christianity
and a stranglehold on the citizens
Folks turning in for the latest disinformation from CNN, MSNBC, Fox
It’s tailored to their beliefs, a lovely song of half-truths and lies
candy coated to make the horrific palatable
and to let you forget before that show is over
All that is terribly wrong with this current world state
After all, your sitcom starts in thirty minutes
and you received your daily dose of educational miseducation
so you wont look like a dummy at the water cooler
when they bitch for the millionth time that Bush wiretaps really do protect
We have TV blatantly taunting us, letting us know
We no longer have any real say outside of our opinions
And that election day
Is nothing but a show
A chance to make us keep believing
That this country is still democratic
Fear is welling in many
The ignorant populace turn it into hatred for the “terrorists”
fifty years ago they were the “Communists”
It’s McCarthyism recycled
Power hungry evangelists
Usurp more power from their loyal congregations
Acting like tyrannical parents that cajole and criticize
Why do these people act like blind lost sheep
They never seem to realize that these cats are
not God’s messengers…they lost that ability the day they saw
The control that was put in their hands
and became addicted to themselves
They never seem to realize they have the right to have doubts
To ask questions
To see the flaws in the so called “infallible word of God”
Three recommendations I have are
to lay aside all your crutches
tune into the God within
and realize when the frequency aint just right
This is the best way to fight
These people who are finding more and more ways to put out your light
