Lost And Found Poem by Bill Cantrell
Lost And Found
How can I find poetry,
in a world of moral decline?
Life has become of very little value,
unless one stands up for the cause of perversity
I have become sick,
yes, looking at absolute corruption in politics
Religious leaders are a cancer,
as pedophile priests prey on those,
entrusted to their veneer of godliness,
while others slaughter and behead others,
all in the name of a cause
Raping women and gutting children
How can I find poetry in this?
Nations which wave the flag of atheism
act without mercy, eating the hope of their people,
placing an unbearable burden on them,
while those ruling live in shameless luxury
Where is justice?
I have searched for it
It is elusive as peace
It is rarer than a chest of refined gold
It is the joke of all jokes,
yet, no one is laughing
Please tell me, where is there room for poetry?
I go to creation to find it
The earth is weeping profusely
One species after another,
enters the dead zone,
while there are those who value,
their pet more so than a persons life
Thick gloom covers this orb of violence
Dark poetry is as words written on
stalls fit for urinating negativity
Everyone is an island to themselves,
excluding a chosen few,
and it is them,
in which I find poetry
An unforgettable and marvelously written resume, of a World gone wrong. No principles and singing the wrong song. This poem, if we survive, will make you one of the greatest poets, ever known! .
A poem that deeply resonates with many of us. Timely, touching and so poignant. To my favorites.
The earth is weeping profusely, so very true! .. As life is dying! ..
Again, Very heart breaking but sadly true! .. Deeply and powerfully expressed! .. May the Lord hear our cries, Our Prayers! ..
