The Times Of Man Poem by AHO Speaks

TheTimes Of Man

If God had a plan
It would have put a woman in charge instead of a man.

Man is the warrior and slayer of youth
First human of disobedience to deny the truth.

Man sacrificed the virgins to his god
Then to offer a harvest tithe from the sod.

Always time to build a sacrificial altar
Animal blood was offered instead of a daughter.

Caesar's called god and emperors were divine
Slayers of youth these men of earthly time.
God's on earth and gods in the sky
Erased in time because man still denies.

Man manipulates the word blame
Finally found his one, 'living' god, of one gender but no earthly name.

Different religions of humanity since time began
The seeds were right but interpreted only by man.

Human causes lose direction, purpose and even right
When the leader is gone so also much of its light.

Acts of violence, war and destruction are what man does sow
Refuses to acknowledge God's gifts to live, change and grow.

Universal God creator one
Not by plan, will or mind, but purity of creative love; for everyone.

Man's acts have not changed because of denial and greed
Truth, right and just; not always found in good laws, acts, or human deeds
