Dealing with Reality

From an Independent free-thinker.


 

I have heard the cries
of those enslaved by tyrants
I have seen their blood
run in the streets
Held a mutilated child in my arms
Broke bread with those
who have no food to eat

From the comfort of
a cozy room some try to reason
Distorted lies and thoughts
a million miles away
from devastation and pure evil
The g
ravest threat
that we have ever faced

I commend you for this write Ed! We need to show our spirit and patriotism sometimes regardless of what the naysayers tell us!
since when do they have all the say, only if we let them! As for
me I will always love this country and stand up for the truths of all we do to help others. No one, I repeat NO ONE helps more than we do!
Standing with you!

Edwin, we should all be free thinkers, considering the amount of lives that have fallen through the course of our history for us to be able to do so. However...some forget to open their minds and eyes before it's too late.
There is pure evil that threatens us today..and smiling and shaking hands with it..is not going to make it all better. They have mind sets of nothing but destruction for America and it's allies...and only we have the power to stop them. And we must.
Great piece.

Edwin, this reality is in reality all too real. For the carnal nature of man seeks to destroy, and free thinkers must think to rise above the villainy of this world. Excellent piece...

This is great... on a side note, the slaves are crying out for a master.
