stop
where are our cardinals, bishops and priests
where are our imams and rabbis
where are our elders and chiefs
where are the those who profess to know, love and fear God
we are standing at the base of the newest crucifixion
our young and old are dying
not because of disease but rather because of loneliness, drugs, fear and lies
why have you lent your hands to those who bind them
there is no glory in the death of another you
our souls are united by an infinite twine of Consciousness
what they believe they have divided, they have made more impenetrable
while fragile and perishable, we are the osmium of all creation
why do you fear those who wish to imperil you
is it the dread of imprisonment, death and dishonour
is honouring self more important than honouring your unending soul
why do you opt to exist, if all you desire is a daily breath and swallow
when the road appears to have come to an end
you must continue your gait and know something greater will ensue
the path was always clear and precise, even if unconstructed
for God created the path, but you instead chose the Devil’s possibilities
where are our police officers, who offer to serve and protect
where are our military men and women, who offer us liberty
where are our judges, who uphold our laws
where are those who have sworn an oath to God, knowing we are part of God
stop the madness that is maddening the world
stop the few who are much fewer than us
stop the liars and their litany of lies
stop the insanity
Thank you,
Joseph Pede
