Days of Darkness 2





billionaires now in power
the darkest of hours has arrived
money now rules...fools on the warpath
yet the Bible says
“For the love of money is the root of all evil…"
avarice…gluttony…greed
the seed of war now planted
into future partnerships with haters…dictators
racism and bigotry
exploding over the country
dropping bomb shards that kill
empathy and reason in the season of hate
to late for justice for all…
hypocritical right winged
Christianity spreads a disease of the mind
with such ease…hypocrisy
continues to promote unjust acts
don't tax the rich
silence the voice of a woman's right of choice
set limitations on the immigration of Muslims
times up for for the achievers...the dreamers
self- righteousness rules

the moral right is so confused...
cultivating darkness
embroiling America in
a spiritual contradiction of a religion
devoid of the love of Jesus
who they profess to believe in...
cultivating darkness
no justice for the oppressed
no justice for the poor
no justice for the downtrodden…
only death, the grave, and hell.

now real justice it seems
has once again become only a dream
of social democracy in the land of the free
wouldn't it have been glorious to see
universal health care
affordable housing everywhere
sustainable care for the elderly…
living out their lives in peace
education for all citizens
the school to prison pipeline eradicated at last
massive incarceration a phenomenon of the past...
O' what a wonderful country this could be…
if taxation of the rich was a reality
helping to pay for social programs
that could assist in the elimination of poverty
and then this nation would truly be
“One nation…under God
with liberty and justice for all.”
