No, you heard what I said!


Poem Artwork

We face God and the devil,
and all other type evil.
Family, friends, and addictions,
add to our personal restrictions.
Trying to move freely in
body, conscious, and mind,
can at times seem like
we're coming and going blind.


God wants his time,
the devil constantly sublime.
Family and friends desire,
keep the heart and soul on fire.
We need our drink and nutrition,
but at times even it falls to suspicion.
Most of us lose touch,
end up nutritioning too much.


Life can be unbearable and sad,
worse when we don't realize
we're being had.
Not realizing we're in the coup,
might affect the way we regroup,
burying us further in the soup.


When things get too hot,
I jump out of the pot.
Don't call me my dear,
if you do I might not be here.
See no evil,
speak no evil,
hear no evil,
what's a devil?
Hope God cut me some
slack awhile,
this isn't normally my style.


I'm on vacation,
go somewhere else and
get your explanation.


I have none.

Oh yes, how very true this is, there are times when we need to just get away and remember who we are. Loved this.

We all are like a bell that everybody shake to get an answer, some don't like how we sound, some don't care, and just a few wait patiently for the answer.
Then again, if you wanted some slack...you should be taller, because God is awfully hight up there.
A nice poem, a brain twister.
Respectfully
