someone forgot to mention

tell me about your problems:

I have something that can solve them/
tell me about that guy that cut you off in traffic the other day/
tell me about how your boss didn't give you a raise in pay/

sing the song of "the victim" while I play the world's smallest violin/
confess it to me privately so I can absolve the sin/

its sad to see humanity dying at the feet of a vulture/
morally bereft, obsess over celebrities in a so-called "first-world" culture/

can we save the world with 200 billion dollars instead of investing in invasions on another nation's sovereignty?/ (the answer is no)
but maybe we can save one mother, one man or this child from poverty/

She is special because she is our child; she is the baby we have conceived/precious child indeed, closer than the air we breathe

but she is dying of starvation with stomach in distention/

it is useless to blame anyone for this child's suffering and that is not my intention/

I just want to remind you not to take your life for granted which is something someone forgot to mention/

perhaps when we can love outside of our personal strife, fear and petty grief/ we will learn to love God while she is crawling at our feet



god bless you..
