Obscenity
By La Belle Rouge

severe obscenity of questions
with no answers
and answers unsolicited

once I asked the questions….
why some are born burdened

why children are abandoned
they and helpless animals
pitilessly abused

why some innocent die young
and some evil spread their roots
to burden the earth a century

why polluters prosper
and messengers are stoned

why love is devalued
returned with possessiveness
and clueless cruelty

why dreams don’t come true
and hopelessness consumes
the expectation of youth

why faith can be thought
so easy to hold to
or virtually impossible

because of the obscenity
of unanswered questions

and the idiotic emptiness
of unsolicited answers

no more futile questions
trouble resolute spirits
or fallen angels

depths of obscene injustices
are unfathomable

A raw reveal of the flaw in human genealogy. As predators who love our offspring, one gene can make us a selfless hero or a selfish villain. The toss of the dice can make all the difference. Let's hope the good guys win.

Yes...they are but only because man rules this earth...although only temporarily as his laws and his actions to peace have failed. That day shall arrive when we shall see glory and justice and a true kingdom established forever and we will finally understand the answers to all our questions. Beautiful work as always...just amazing how your mind works. I am always in awe.
Amor

Belle, your rendering, indicative of a great range of thought, philosophical and full of compassion for the human spirit -- unanswered questions, I doubt that mine will cease, futile though they might be -- your poetry has become like fine wine, always a rewarding experience -- may peace and love be always with you my dear friend -- Jon Michael

This is inspirational, the writing and the ideas. I'm afraid I have been guilty of too many platitudes, and if not those then I head off to eat some chocolate. Next time I will pause first...
Many Blessings,
Christine

"The idiotic emptiness of unsolicited answers." Oh yes, speaks loudly to me of a myriad of pathetic platitudes. Well done. I'm inspired. Thank you for sharing this jewel with us. J'nia

I love that music behind your words...your words are sadly asked, and asked through the ages, and will be asked into the future. One day, long after we have turned to dust, the answers will appear.

Cheers,

The obscenity of morally mutes asking aloud to perverted deaf and the heretical saying of man creating God so man could have someone to blame for his man made calamities...

Very well done La Belle, there are so many questions that should be answered and so many answers that are false or just plain propagana lies. Regardless we struggle on in search of the truth for that is all the honest man(woman) can do...

Hi Belle - yeah. Finding asking and answering 'How' questions, more likely to make a little strategy at least - may have more chance of skipping the ravine of depression and hopelessness avoiding too many whys about obscene injustices, general unfairness, general unkindness. Lot of it about...Why oh why?! The answer in the back of the book says, 'If humans had a hand in it, fear, greedy selfish selfishness, and a lack of Empathy is usually in the answer.' So, now we know. Thanks Belle - good to read :)

Quite a pinnacle of poetry! This piece is a pre-existing monument, a temple of philosophy, running thousands of miles of centuries upriver! La Belle Rouge, wounded five times, commissioned for the people's history. How many have died en route? How many injustices before the concept of non-judgmental, love for all rebirth? Take your moment where the sun aligns with the pyramid, La Belle Rouge!

Love and Eternal Quill,
Sage
