[hometext] => A look at the world...............
[bodytext] => Setting fire to the timbers of the world The heralding of new ideas unfold Unexpected to find that the design will murder a gilded son In the stream that is our time, we seek the one that will return our soul Oh how we long for the sweet embrace of justice to make us all equal You see? The fire now grows Smoke of hate is carried on the wind Into the lungs and throughout the veins The infection now grows Zealots conspire and renew old demons You are responsible for the pain a thousand miles away Let them partake of your wealth by setting upon reciprocity But that is never enough Eating so well while others do not is blasphemy Contemptuous vagrants ascend Hierarchy tainted by covetousness A new tariff on each born soul Strain overwhelms the ones of burden Insurrection looms Mutiny festering Bloodshed assured Trumpets of war heard in the valley, atop the peaks and to the great sea The suffering of manmade lightning strikes Righteousness fades into a waning light Scorched earth reveals an axiom of mankind The scales of rectitude will never be balanced Moving one stone pillar to compensate for another will cause a castle to crumble [comments] => 2 [counter] => 280 [topic] => 21 [informant] => poisonpen00ad [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )
