I am broken
heart and will
the world is broken
festering and ill
its systems broken
pillage and ****
careening out of control
or standing still
from every side the scream
answers mine, loud and shrill
I choke on tears that stream
trying to swallow each bitter pill

when prayers can't even comfort.....when my heart reaches out to children I cannot save.....poetry and prayer.....offerings from my soul....please God help them!
"The world is in great turmoil, and the minds of its people are in a state of utter confusion. We entreat the Almighty that He may graciously illuminate them with the glory of His Justice, and enable them to discover that which will be profitable unto them at all times and under all conditions. He, verily is the All-Possessing, the Most High." Baha'u'llah (Baha'i Sacred Writings)
