UNDER SIEGE

by Robert Daniel Long   Nov 19, 2018


POISONED WORDS
THOSE SPOKEN TO WOUND A SOUL
A DIVISION
OF TRUTH AND DECEIT

A LIE
TO SAY THE LEAST

WORDS TO UNTIE AND UNRAVEL
THE SERENITY
OF WHAT LIFE IS
GUILDED TO SELFISH GAIN
NO MATTER THE PAIN PRODUCED

A JEALOUS RAGE OF ADULTS ACTING LIKE CHILDREN
THEIR CORRUPT POLITICS
HAS LEFT US THIS WAY
BOUND BY STUPIDITY AND VIOLENCE

THEY'RE ATTEMPTING TO FOUL
WHATS BEEN GAINED
LEAVING US ABANDONED TO DESPAIR
TAKE A MOMENT
AND LOOK AROUND
THERE IS NO HALLOWED GROUND ANYMORE

THE TURMOIL
IN OUR COUNTRY IS PROOF
TEARS FALL LIKE RAIN
ON BARREN GROUND
AND NOTHING TAKES ROOT

ALL HOPING FOR A REFRAIN
FROM THE MURDER DONE TO OUR PERSONA
WE NEED SOMETHING
TO REFUTE THIS PLAGUE OF EVIL
THAT HAS BESEIGED US

SOMETHING
TO BREAK US FREE

I LOOKED UP AND FOUND
THE ANSWERS I NEEDED
WERE RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME
IT WAS THE WORD OF GOD

WHICH SAID IN PART
"FOR THOU ART NOT A GOD THAT HATH PLEASURE IN WICKEDNESS
NOR WILL EVIL DWELL WITH YOU

THE FOOLISH WILL NOT STAND IN YOUR SIGHT
BECAUSE YOU HATE WORKERS OF INIQUITY"

IF PEOPLE WOULD STOP
SEE THE HARM AND DESTRUCTION DONE
MAYBE WE COULD FIND SOLICE

BUT THE FAR LEFT WING WILL NOT CEASE
THEIR INCESSANT WRONG DOING TO PEOPLE
WHO DON'T DESERVE THAT TYPE OF RIDICULE
RUNNING AROUND LIKE HOODLUMS
CAUSING MAYHEM
AMONGST THEIR FELLOW MAN

FROM WHERE I STAND
THEY WON'T BE HAPPY
UNTIL THERE IS NO AMERICA
ANYMORE.
