Overcoming

If not force, then strategy But not just a speech prodigy Talking about what is and what should be Against God and men you set yourself free Blaming and accusing Jeering and smearing After having been awarded audience You speak devoid of conscience Yes you are discontent And you want to vent Temporal relief is sure But not so a lasting cure But in enduring in observance You’ll find happenings within happenstance That can turn tables fast And make first of those that were last So, do we talk or remain silent? Do we cause or wait for an event? I say there’s time for everything And the exact time for the very thing Is for God to grace us with discernment A cause of action to alleviate the torment That our kin have always had to brace With shame beyond saving face K.
