Rage When Tragedy Strikes Disaster Catastrophic ever noticed an atheist bad mouth God all his/her life then when tragedy strikes disaster catastrophic falls disbeliever angry cries out why me God what did I do rage scorpion venom blind stinging a God not believed in Inspired by the poem 'We Are Commanded To Love God' by the poet Shalom Freedman.

Mocking Words Became A Pain Cane Whipping In Tragedy noticed we have people proud people affluent who rubbish run down God all their lives then blame god when tragedy falls blaming a God they despised disinherited do not believe in where now is past ridicule scorn sneering mocking words 'I thought God was a walking stick crutch for the weak' mocking words became a pain cane whipping in tragedy Dedicated to the poet Shalom Freedman.

'It is too much I need God I pray to God There are moments of awe and inspiration Of goodness and gratitude When I love God But I do not love God With the constancy and faith I should And God forgive me I don't think I ever will.' life overwelms, it is easier to love the kindness close at hands, my troubles fall upon us, searching out strength is a little harder

Commanded to fear is more like it
