Chicanery

How long will men kill and maim
and blaspheme God's holy name?
Sweep the truth under the rug
and when confronted simply shrug?
Playing games that make no sense
at their nation's own expense!
Real criminals are walking free
cheating folks like you and me!
They've lost their sense of right and wrong
because they lie all day long.
I never thought I'd live to see
such shameless chicanery!
When will the corruption cease?
When Jesus reigns as Prince of Peace!! (c)

About the Poet
Christian since 1973, widowed in 2007, but by the divine appt. of God, I married a wonderful, godly widower in Oct. 2010. Three grown, married sons and eight grandchildren. My first love is Jesus who inspires my pen, for apart from Him I can do nothing! I desire to honor the Lord and edify readers thru poetry He inspires.
