Tell Me, Why? Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Religions of the world help people to have faith, hope,
charity, compassion, teaching it all through an uncond-
itional love.

So why is there racism, hatred, intolerance, prejudice
and evil, why is it now prevailing across the world, is
anyone practicing what God preached when he was here?

Sure doesn't seem like it, does it, pretending to follow
God, many have joined cults, practicing self-centeredness,
lust and perversion on innocent women and children.

God never preached any of that, because it's totally a-
gainst everything He stands for, people know this, but
keep looking the other way.

Tell my why is that happening, doesn't anyone care about
others, if they did I think they'd be fighting with every
ounce of strength within their beings to end it all.
