STEP OUT

Step out
in the night
and see who controls
the great and mighty forces
of the earth,
the fortress of the media
and wisdom of the encyclopedia
from lexicon and dictionaries
with their collection agencies
even our mechanics
possess the keys of graft
the fix is in the business
of the party machines
or as Stalin said ,
it is not how many votes
are recorded
but who counts the votes
are rewarded
so the retainers remain
in power forever
from the hands
of clever politicians,
yet we poets
who love language the most
in the beauty of His Word
and tower in His Holy Spirit
are like the early Christians
in lands of Jerusalem and Rome
above all Mount Zion
hide in the catacomb
or are thrown to the lion.
