PEBBLES STREWN

Contributed by lovingcritters on Thursday, 31st July 2003 @ 10:05:00 AM in AEST
Topic: Lifepoems



Pebbles strewn
throughout our lives.
Stepping stones to love or hate.
Critical times, last days....
Searching, grappling, painful state!

Savagely enforced, misunderstood,
For Good is Bad, Bad is good!
Warm compassionate hearts decay..
As lawlessness increases,
Feelings often fray!

Subtle Pebbles placed
against one's will.
Sweet is bitter,
Bitter is sweet.....swallowing,
Gagging, nauseous, disgusting pill!

Charades played,
games hidden out of sight.
Dark for light, light for dark.
Secrets, lies, puzzling maze....
Constant deciphering
'tween wrong and right?

Entire lifetimes lived
infested with disquise
"Fear of Man" felt, empathized!
Gluttons for punishment, and gore.
Safety locks, double bolted door!.

Children tortured, more abuse.
Infants abandoned,
Garbage bags, trash bins,
little naked recluse.
Mother's love once so strong,
Fear of man, admitting no wrong!

Domestic violence,
Once loved husband, cherished wife,
Hardened hearts,
Where once love thrived.
Splits, divorces, separations,
few survived!

Growing children, unauthorized.
"Heads of House"
Live-in parents......they despise.
Breaking points, guns and force.
No compromise, no remorse.

Employer's cringe, cater, truckle to,
Dishonesty, disloyal apathy,
No responsibility.
Partying, pills, dope and booze.
Alarm sounds, no one moves!

Mentally perplexed, depressive.
Justice disappears, as jurors fail.
Runaway rebelliousness,
stifles peace.
Raper's paradise, kidnappers lease!

Huge Flying Torpedoes
as explosive as the Atomic Bomb,
Bombardment, unguarded
Open, vunerable twin towers.
Viable torched, cremated instantly!
Dead religion taught annilation!
guaranteed compensation!

Peace no longer reigns at home.
Wars include many a foreign shore.
Shots echo over a young
soldier's grave.
A Mother's whole life sacrificed,
for all the love she gave!

Toss the pebbles hurriedly....
Stepping stones 'ner erase.
Find the pebble for love,
Also goodness,
as mercy bypasses the human race!

One individual, just like you!
One single soul, with integrity in hand!
Unrelenting, to the "fear of man!"
Which pebble will you chose?
Will you continue to contribute?
Or boldly take your stand?

Beautiful and realistic write. Had to read it slowly and thoroughly to really understand it well =)
--------------------------------
If a person changed others would queue
To be just like him and start anew
The pebble for love I will gladly take
Now everyone take it for Heaven's sake!
