Cycle

Sheer emotion peering deep for reasoning, into the unwarranted human travesty.

The ultimate wickedness of human infliction...Shock, anger, fear and

bitterness gave way to aching soul's of sorrow. Praying for comfort,

clearer vision and divine revelation.

"Fore many are called, but few

are chosen" Matthews 22:14

Sacrificed to illuminate all

human condition...

African massacres & Famine

Indian reservation condition

Middle Eastern wars

Banished Haitians

Worldwide racism

Child molestation

Darfur Genocide

Prostitution

Abuse

Aids

Slave labor

Homelessness

Pedophile priest

Russian orphans

The death penalty

World nuclear threats

North Korean children

Nigerian women murders

No sacrifice greater that another,

Lest we forget while digesting their fruit,

unwilling to share inheritance of 30 million Africans

enslaved or slaughtered and 10 million captured or massacred Jews!

The cycle continues until oneness. When all men, equally feast upon the spoils

of world harvest and a new consciousness of mere compassion existence for all mankind!

I love your interpretation of " The End" when you said

"When all men, equally feast upon the spoils
of world harvest and a new consciousness of mere compassion existence for all mankind!"

Thats something worth taking note of.

Very true indeed. If not compassion at least a respect for life. Oh and lest we forget about the inquisition, it makes the holocaust seem like a fight on the playground.

A very powerful poem indeed, covers a plethora of world tragedies that we should not only heed but work towards ending. You ending is perfect - it is exactly what is called for - Well said. Thank you for sharing this with me.

Oh this is just a feast for the eyes and senses. You speak of many ills of our planet. The bible also says Satan was cast down to earth, and that earth is his realm. Just turn on the idiot box, step outside your front door, read world history-CRITICALLY, turn on your radio...Devils do indeed fester in every segment of our population and Satin is their father, their leader, their god! The cycle MUST be broken or we are all doomed to rot in/on this hell!
What turns me on to this piece is the optics. This is the strength of this poem.
Very well done. =)

Powerful and well structured. A very scary cycle. One that most wake up, are blind to, go to sleep blind to it. Good dose of reality, a sad one, but a needed one. Keep it up, you have much talent.
Peace,

This is really just gorgeous writing and I love the structure you use to show the cycle; the arc of truth that you're writing about. You say a lot but don't over-explain anything. I believe that is what gives this piece so power.

One little thing - do mean "No sacrifice greater than another," or did you mean "that"? Hope you don't mind that once a proof reader always a proof reader. It was my first job out of college.

Anyway a great poem and a great I feel to be introduced to you as a writer. I look forward to reading all of your work.
