The Gospel told by a common man

World is going crazy. USA need to reset our goals.

                      The Gospel told by a common man


              Men with wife and children.
              Fugitive to the ability to succeed.


              With the grain of hope.
              We beckon for a trace of kindness.


              Poverty inflicts all with equality.
              Race and religion mean nothing.
              When you are hungry and homeless.


              Frigid and endangered economy.

              Erode hopes and dreams.

              Held hostage by Leaders in Washington.

              Common man and woman forsaken.
              Left on the sideline hoping and praying.


              Humph and f**k by loan companies.
              Soon Americans will become nomads.


              Wars expedite hiding the flames of truth.
              Shameless leaders beleaguer us with stories
              of Devils and ghosts.


              Soon we will will be isolated and lobotomy.
              Be like tame relics in a museum.


              Need to remove our restrains.
              Start the saga of forth-right people.


              Stop the epidemic of lies.
              Chastise the thieves and so-call leaders.


              We must lust for a good world.
              Jump over hurdles of hate and violence.
              Began a eulogy of a human race who wants
              the truth.


              We need men with mercy and wisdom.
              The erosion of the USA must stop.


              Men/Woman with blind eyes to the poor and sick.
              Lover's of War.


              Their filthy and bloody dreams must died.


               We need the human race who pass out food and 
               medicine.


                Not gun and death.


                We must elect honest men/woman who won't
                change their vote after they are elected.


                For the children. All children.

                Need to put the guns down.

                End the violence.

                Don't need tears of USA, Africa and Asia Mother's.


                For sons and daughter killed and slaughtered for
                the so-call good will of Evil men/woman.

Germany in the 1940s held similar views and turned to an erratic and psychotic leader to manage it. This and other countries are doing the same today and will pay the same toll. I don't mean to preach, and yet this was foretold long ago... "terrible times will come. For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, without love of good, traitorous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power." It's a sad world in which we live.

[Coyote Poetry]

I agree James. We are on the train ride to hell. This is a old poem with the same meaning today. I have five grandchildren. I hope we leave something for them.

[Sami Khalil]

A worthy and much needed message to save the world from war and tyrrany, to expose the abusive powers and corruption, to shield the innocent men, women and children from the misdeeds of politicians and big corporations.
Wise words that need heeding.

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you Sami. A very old poem and the world is the same.

[Sami Khalil]

I agree. You are welcome sir Coyote. I guess we can at least change minds and hearts.

[DIVYA]

I'm going back 13 years to read your old poems, dear Coyote. Your cry of compassion rings out so loud and heartrendingly here. Indeed, we need no more tears of those mothers anywhere in the world. All the mothers are the same. The common man suffers for the greed and ego of those in high places. After 13 years, your words still shine with such truth and relevance.

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you dear Divya. Women, are the making of life. They honor us men.

[DIVYA]

You are most welcome, dear Coyote.

[W. Barrett Munn]

You have a great message to share, Coyote. Keep howling and maybe someone will hear. Let's hope.

I hope someone is listening Winston. Thank you for reading and the comment.

On the show Knight Rider there is a line: "One man can make a difference."
But not enough people are willing to fight. Easier to just follow the pack. The silent majority, I heard it called on an episode of Bewitched where George Washington was accidentally brought into the 1960's.
Poets and drifters... Voices crying in the wilderness.

[William Michael Reeves]

What did I say about you running with words that howl. So this is how it starts. I think more of us have become nomads since you wrote this.

[Coyote Poetry]

You are right William. USA is falling backwards. An old poem and it is sad. We are falling down, and I hope. We can get up. Thank you for reading and the comment my friend.

[William Michael Reeves]

Just read this again and it really speaks of today's troubles. Amazing!

[Mauricio Montoya]

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you my friend. Old words and the world is the same. Poor getting poorer and rich getting richer.

[Rye]

WOW! This is just so powerful, your message is conveyed.

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you my friend. I pray everyday. We find our sanity. This world. Need more concern and kindness.

[NEHA]

"Poverty inflicts all with equality.
Race and religion mean nothing.
When you are hungry and homeless."
I LOVED THIS STANZA!!!!
nice poetry and conveys an infinitely deep message!

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you NEHA. World is the same. Rich get richer and the poor, get poorer.

[Yari Garcia]

I was curious to see what your first poem was. I am not disappointed. You have a lot of great wisdom here.

I especially enjoyed these two stanzas:

"Poverty inflicts all with equality.
Race and religion mean nothing.
When you are hungry and homeless."

and

"Frigid and endangered economy.

Erode hopes and dreams.

Held hostage by Leaders in Washington.

Common man and woman forsaken.
Left on the sideline hoping and praying."

Well done.

Yari

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you Yari. The bad part is. The world is the same 8 years later.

[Yari Garcia]

It makes one wonder if it will ever change.

[Coyote Poetry]

If we don't. Whole world is in trouble my friend..
