Kettles and Pans

Precious un-born baby,
in Your mamma's womb;
Is there anything more sacred,
than a child about to bloom?
How can anybody
do what they're about to do?
How can anyone be so callous
as to turn their back on You?

Well, I see You've been born,
so, I guess You're on your own;
You're not my problem, now;
You're a part of
somebody else's home...
Don't expect me to sacrifice;
Don't expect me to bleed for You;
I'd rather have my toys and stuff;
that's what us self-righteous
grown-ups do...

Seems we have a kettle
calling the pan black!
Seems we got a case of blind folk
unaware of what they lack!
How can any-self-respecting-body
do what they always do?
How can anyone be so callous
as to turn their back on You?

[music] ...that's what us self-righteous grown-ups do...

When did I feed You?
When did I quench Your thirst?
When did I visit You in bondage?
When did I serve You first?
When did I put clothes on Your back?
When did I invite You in?
When did I pour my wealth on Your sickness?
When did I; please tell me, when?

Well, I see You've been born,
so, I guess You're on your own;
You're not my problem, now;
You're a part of
somebody else's home...
Don't expect me to sacrifice;
Don't expect me to bleed for You;
I'd rather have my toys and stuff;
that's what us self-righteous
grown-ups do...

D***!
God Almighty, d***!
How can any self-respecting-body
turn their back on a You?
How can any self-respecting-body
turn their back on a child?
How can any self-respecting-body
turn their back on the poor?
How can any-self-respecting-body
turn their back on our Lord?
Aw...that's what us self-righteous
grown-ups do...
That's what the self-righteous
do...
That's what the Anti-Christ
does...

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
