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.

Any error. Please advice me. I appreciate the help. One man or woman can do great things. Martin Luther King gave us hope and dream of love and peace. Thank you for reading.

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.

[Mark]

I like the concept of a common mans gospel.

[Dimples87]

This is your perspective of the gospel and to be honest with you, I think you're spot on! I thought my husband and I were the only ones who had this point of view. I also love the terminology you chose to use here. I don't see any error either except for capitalization in the title and a few grammar issues that can be edited. But if you'd like my assistance, I am always here to help.

[Huggy Bear]

The read is great. A great and deep flow from a great author:)

[Dev]

I so agree with this.. Nowadays anythin that happens in one corner of the world affects us all.. nice write !!

[Poetic Beauty]

This is a great eye opening poem. I love the words you have chosen for the poem.

[Haifa]

I don't know if theres an error, because I am still not too perfect in English but I am good at it. I understand it for sure, I really like it. I feel this poem it fulls of hopes and I hope they would be true, I feel this world have no peace but I only hope that they would care and do as your poem says. I like it all but I like the last nine lines for more.
Well done,
Haifa

[Star Wolf]

Everything you wrote here is so true! I think we all need to just start hoping and praying we won't lose our country because the one that replaces it will not at all be better!

[Art]

The world has changed and the country is changing...we are as puppets within the strings...well more like the politicians are puppets within strings leaving us to live their decisions...

nice work...

[Tina Kline]

Wonderful words of truth. We must hope that the USA will make it, if enough of us hope something good will happen, I just don't know what but we must hope it will. Thanks for writing and sharing this.
