A Good Way To Destroy Your Faith
A Poem by
R. Gene MacDonald
A poem about the ever-increasing negative energy of the world.
There are Roads that
lead to places unsung,
where a silent
teardrop
is the loudest noise of all.
And there are particles of
Air that float so
High,
the only angels that can
breathe them are the
fortunate few that have
learned to fly with no
threat of
fallling,
But there, too,
are those places soaked
with blood, riddled with
endless doorways, that
close callously in your
face,
and loaded with dangers
you can't begin to see.
A good way to destroy your faith...
Take a walk amongst the crowds.
Steal a glare from
a stranger.
See all the selfishness consume,
see the hate in our DNA.
Take it all
in,
This darkened day,
that wreeks with caffeine stains that
has
Leaked from our skin.
This utter world of hurry
with no place to go.
Take it all in.
A good way to destroy your faith...
Take
a walk
beside your neighbors,
and take it all in.

I definitely agree with the theme of your writing.Expressed clearly in poetic prose but neverthe less retain some shreds of hope for humanity We are capable of incredible selfishness and a the same selfless altruism
