ARE YOU ASHAMED WHEN...

Life and Death

Are you ashamed when your life looks like this?

Twenty and three years of a broken marriage;

That is scattered into unrecognizable bits and pieces.

And life itself with hot flashes and untidy creases:

And on center stage the spotlight is on you,

And so many jackhammers with excruciating blow;

Condemnation, condemnation, and whatever follows?

 

Are you ashamed when your life looks like this?

Beheaded by the executioners axe,

 A thousand times without mercy:

Or hanging from the gallows flashed with fancy,

Or the colourless blood from busted veins.

And the crowd exited for more;

Sinner, sinner, echoed from hell; that stately w***e.

 

Are you ashamed when your life looks like this?

Crawling bodies in those hidden parts,

Under braziers and panties with potty hand,

And a mother’s curse from Tableland;

And visions of hope bottled up by evil spells.

And strength was given to the Beast of death,

No shame, no shame, another wrathful threat.

 

Will you be ashamed if you knew the untold ones?

Will you be ashamed of me?

Why are you ashamed Oh noble beings?

God and His heavenly hosts glad I am living….

I am not ashamed so why are you ashamed…

This piece speaks to me of those who are stuck in the world valueing the material rather than the inner soul's goodness. They would rather fret over designer clothes and the shiny gold necklaces rather than stop and say a prayer or light a candle for a perfect stranger who had shed a tear.
I don't think people should be ashamed of what they do, but I know that many are. I suppose it's because they feel trapped in a place they can't change... or at least that's what they believe, having not found the truth in the life is ever evolving and change is going on all the time. They but need to reach out and take hold of that blowing wind and they would find that the could accomplish anything and do it without the pain and suffering of others.

Great Poetry!

It twas said by a wondering dove that a tear of joy can bring happiness from above. That no matter the turn of the season's sun, a heavenly thought is comprised of fun. =) You are very welcome. I believe I can feel the rainbow that sparkled through the drop as it fell through the sun. =D
