whilst pondering
my last comment to
my fellow earthlings
I thought it more apropo
to ask all beings one question:
Who do you serve?
Everyday, ask yourself
who do you serve today
If the served is primarily you
then I'm very sorry
you've severed relations
with all the others around you
the serpent said, 'choose
for your SELF'
and we hang our heads and
still wander from the Garden
where God's abundance is
and are here picking weeds
and are deciding which ones
to burn and which ones to smoke
to burn or not to burn?
that is the question
in this mortal fun house
of horrors
a few here serving mankind
can spread the love-and-equality
virus, to which there is no
innoculation,
a wonderful contagion
dip me in it
Never serving evil should be everyone's primary objective and aim in life, because that's where violence starts from. Helping others from the heart and never counting the cost is what humanity needs to be doing in order to bring peace in our world. Standing together against evil and destroying it is the only way to a lasting peace and an end to violence. 10+++++++++ Thank you for sharing. RoseAnn
The serpent said? You think I'd believe what a serpent tells me? I'd rather trust Ayn Rand, and, in fact, do. But I don't take it to the extreme like she does. I believe in sharing-the-wealth and helping others, but I also feel a primary, instinctive duty to take care of myself, first. I love this poem, however. Smooth progression, thought-provoking, and entirely enjoyable.
Adam and Eve trusted him and entered the death cult that most of the plane-t find themselves in Always choosing life reverses their direction wonderful metaphors to consider, discuss and ponder!
This is a stunning response to the Paris Massacre because you are dealing with the underlying issues that cause such a resort to violence and in the process show a much better path for us humans to follow once we think things through. This poem is a summons and a challenge to people of basic good will, because no appeal we make at this time will penetrate the certitude of the ISIS-type terrorist. Your poem will reach those who are uninformed and complacent and stir them into solidarity with us who occupy the center of humanity.
Few here serving for mankind with love and affection. Interesting poem shared...10
