Array ( [sid] => 43947 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => No God [time] => 2004-04-19 19:47:41 [hometext] => Wrote this about 10 minutes ago while writing a PM to a dear friend on the site... I hope you know who you are...and I hope this explains a little bit. [bodytext] => No God I could worship-
Could allow a child to go beaten and alone

No God I could worship-
Could allow a piece of me to die every night

No God I could worship-
Could allow my pillow to stay soaked

No God I could worship-
Could allow my life to lose all hope

No God I could worship-
Could sit back and watch me pray

No God I could worship-
Would allow people to be murdered every day

No God I could worship-
Could leave the lights off in my life

No God I could worship-
Would allow such blatant unjustifiable strife

The God I would pray to-
Would have to make a paradise

The God I would pray to-
Would enrich each and every painful life

The God I would pray to-
Would hold out a hand and help me up

The God I would pray to-
Wouldn't allow killers to roam free

The God I would pray to-
He'd truely show that he loved you and me

The God in your life has never-
Been honest or kind
The God you pray to every night-
Is a figment in your mind.

Amen to thee (lol) i also agree with every word written here, especially the last sentence

'The God you pray to every night-
Is a figment in your mind.'

Another captivating write, i love the message, screams to me in a blaze of excellence, if anyone doesnt agree with this 'looks up' then in the words of a great man

'smite me, almighty smiter!!!!'

luv, hugs, sandy beaches and squishy bugs

Yeaahhhhh,lets blame God,for Pol Pot,Adolf Hitler,mafia, the murders done by countries in the name of the empire,england has got to be the worst......
Why should we believe there is a God because humans are greedy,deceitful and murderers.Lets blame the God who said 'love thine enemies...and 'thou shalt not kill'.DON'T ever blame a human for this!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My daughter died of Leukaemia at the age of 15 but she left a wonderful legacy for those who don't go through life with blinkers on.

Brilliant! I am sitting here in awe and wondering how do I summarize a great poem accurately? Your poem just blew me away. One of your best for sure this one is. You made some valid points in my opinion. That is the great thing about poetry we can write what we want and not everyone has to agree but it still makes for great poetry. 5 stars for this one..

good poem although I don't wholly agree with you I'm not going to guilt trip you because that's you believe and I respect that and have said some of the same things in my life before.

Very well written Lindsey. It's a very sad world.
