Some Men Claim

Some men claim, to their own shame,
to know the American Constitution.
Then, oddly prefer, and wicked Judges concur,
in the innocent babies exclusion.
Yet, our inalienable right; the first one in sight,
is to life, that God has rendered.
Liberty, then happiness follow in process:
deny the first, and all are tendered.
Some, of late, divide Church and State,
while religious humanism gains inclusion.
I fail to see, for the life of me,
how they can reach this conclusion.
The Constitutional intent was totally meant,
as a curb on Federal power taking.
And, lest we forget, all other power yet,
is reserved for states and people's making.
The pact doesn't mandate separation of Church and state:
that was culled from Jefferson's private letter.
So, don't claim, as some, that it came from,
the Constitution, - for we know better.
Pride - the father of sin, bade this evil come in,
and twisted truth into a lie.
I pray God awaken some for the battle to come;
that America's promise will not die.
Forgive this wicked sin, bid us to come in,
to a most Holy reformation.
Lord, let us see thy work in that decree,
and turn us from national ruination.
See Constitution, Declaration of Independence,and
Bill of Rights.

MARVELOUS!!!!INDEED! Lionel I could not agree more my friend.
But those that represent the law are fastly bringing justice to it's end. A law is only as good as those that represent it's good!
Crooked judges, shame on us, for most are voted in by us!
Pray God Almighty himself will intervene soon. With him, no justice is in view.
Wonderful writing, wonderful reading Lionel. Do it again and again, very enjoyable too!
Warm love

Yes indeed Lionel. you expose with great skill and emphathy the saddening situation.
People vote corrupt judges in, because they know no better. Children get bad education, because the parents know no better.
Very tragic. Let us pray for enlightenment.
You expose the fallacy so very poignantly in your beautiful verse.
Thank you Lionel - so glad to have you back again.
Blessings
