There is a tear
TEAR
From the heart... a compassionate tear
For
The child
That is born
Into
Unstable circumstances
For instance:
Where
War and Famine exist...

How disturbing it must be for that child, how
Frightening.
Why!
Why Is something SO beautiful, innocent,
Born into,
Subjected to
Such
Hellishness?

I run it by you, humankind!!

Will
The government, Monarch, Church, respond?
Yes, they will,  when THEY want to
And
Express it
In a way where they
Look the better for it!



But,
More seriously,
GOD,
How
Can You see this without intervening?
GOD,
I ain't no saint
But Hurt
When a life
Is extinguished
And
That means
A
Fly
That is a pest
In homes when cooking
And dead
Bodies are around.

A
Fly
Is a wonderful creation!
