SPEAK OUT

SPEAK OUT

A Poem by Bill Grimes Jr.

 

SPEAK OUT
 
 
Inflation
Degradation
Manipulation
Nuclear proliferation
Financial subrogation
Speak out
Or freak out
No longer
A mere silent observer
Disgusted
Amused
Depressed
Eyes of dismay
Watch such drama unfold
Token tools
To fight heinous invasion
Acts of kindness
Words of truth
Servant’s attitude
In humble toil
Adventure in the trenches
Where the true battle rages
Restless bones aflutter
Tribulation preparation
Power of Jesus Christ
His Majesty
Potent beyond description
Compelling
To slash the veil of doom
Goal of daily focus
With utmost sincerity
Look closely
Deceit surrounds us
Observe the shameful patterns
Resist
With vigorous audacity
Stand up for righteous principle
Defy
Fraudulent cattle prods
Regardless of the cost
Nothing here to lose
No human cost acceptable
To justify this soul sickness
