A can of Tuna here, a dollar, on the other side of the world, a days wages,how long can we rape and blunder, for all we have?

 

False blessings!
 
Fetching water in golden buckets they did,
While others have not a well to drink from,
Emptying golden bowls of their effluent into pristine waters,
Not a thought for neighbours down stream or,
Those with empty stomachs catching fish full of blight,
Preaching the golden rule, where wooden tools, and,
Emaciated oxen plough the parched soil,
From a golden leafed book they preach,
Dispersing alms, while stealing their souls,
So that they can become like them,
God help us!!!

:You got it right, Jasmin. The frauds do try to steal our very souls to fill their pockets, little demons of Satan 's delight...Jerry

You paint a despicable picture that is on target and makes me want to scream vile words at those fakes who deceive the world!

You write so truly of sad condition in the world. If we can provide the nourishment and do the works ourselves, help will be realized. Money seems to go into the pockets of tyranical rulers, and not to those who are in need.

God help us, indeed; mankind seems so unwilling to help others in need.

At the begining of times there were just a handful of lands, now we have over two hundred, if things continue that way i will declare my home a independent Kingdom even is my home isn't a castle.
Nobody can swim under a steam roller, can they?

P.s. I turned away from the golden rule in favor of the platinum rule. With that God will help us

I heard from a lady today who is 80, a neighbor in fact that we have not seen the worst of things. The bible says it will get very bad til the end. She is right, and I don't know how much we can all take. Thanks for your write though, makes me think about things.

People will learn how to count soon.
Over half of the Earth population subscribes ~ is member ~ of the three main Palestinian religions. So the question comes out: WHO IS DESTROYING THE PLANET?

"False blessings!" strikes the womb of JUSTICE. It is a poetic grand.

In respect,

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
