ATHEISM

Anthropomorphism, to God, is excusable;
Too many human beings still find it usable.
However, some modern teachers chide this 'childish' way...
Expert debater with scholastic background might say:-
"Images that inspire awe amongst human beings
"Strengthen laymen's belief in the Maker of all things."
Myself, I sense Him in my temple and my heart sings!

CHRYSALIS

Christians, nay, all human beings have roles to play.
Heaven and Hell circle in challenging display...
Ruffians and religious nuns have differing lives,
Yet God sustains all peoples with their diff'ring drives.
Sometimes I suspect I'm dreaming in a cocoon.
All of us are dreamers; We have to wake up soon...
Let us do the role assigned to us anyway;
It is the task Christ taught-- how each of us could play:-
Serve Love to all lest into Hell we fall to stay...!

A CUT ABOVE

Appearances are indeed deceiving;
Christ at birth knew what He'll be receiving--
Uniquely urgent task of forgiving...
Thus, he was born and must live a human,
A Jew, not even a high-born Roman.
But why should the Almightiest Being
Obey the judgment of the unseeing?
Viewing future days, Infant Jesus saw
ENLIGHTENMENT that from His Blood will flow...

CHRISTMASTIME

Christmas day is not Jesus Christ's birthday;
His birth month could be September or May...
Rome's Emperor chose Mithras' holiday,
Intermixing festive and spiritual
Symbols:-(bread and wine-a Mithras' ritual).
Tolerance was Constantine's real intent.
Mithras' warriors and Jesus Christ's faithful
All joined in celebration--no dissent!
Sadly, Christmastime today seems doleful:-
Too many unemployed are on welfare,
Interests keep piling up on our debt,
Millions more people are without health care....
Even Dem'crats fear the B.O.ss is INEPT!

TRANSPARENT

Telling the truth may oft be difficult;
Rather lie (it's easier) when at fault.
Act innocent then blame an underling...?
Nevertheless, truth is self-revealing.
Socialist bias could not be hidden;
Poor Uncle Sam is fast being driven,
Albeit with foreknowledge of his fate,
Right into the muck of a welfare state.
End your 'social experimentation'
Now, Mr. President; Indeed, you've shown
True transparency--your failed obsession!

BELEAGUERED

Beleaguered Leader, please wake up and see
Embittered cit'zens who hate idiocy...
Loss of health care plans and doctors they trust
Exacerbated their woes as they must
Attempt time and again without success
Groping for cover that costs a bit less....
Undoubtedly, most of us will pay more;
Entitlements bloat, that is the real score.
Request, Sir, for this law's speedy repeal,
Extend to the people a better deal.
Do lend an ear to our urgent appeal!

DROWNING UNCLE SAM

Drowning in debt,
Red-flagged; Not yet
Overdrawn, still
Will borrow till
No more lenders,
If Sam tenders
Nothing but more
Gilt as before...
Uncle should pay
Now, not someday....
China is bold,
Likes U.S. gold.
Eager Uncle
Soon will buckle,
And into a deep pit of debt fall down;
Maybe, in that abyss we shall all drown!

ACCESSIBLE

Almighty God is never inaccessible;
Communion with the Lord is always feasible.
Contacting Him requires no great skill or mental
Energy; 'Bread and wine changing to God' ritual
Seems unnecessary for He permeates all!
Sincere reverence and humility suffice.
Indeed, He hears all pleas, be they foolish or wise.
Believe He is Immanent, not caged in Heaven;
Let Him guide you and help you 24/7.
Express your thanks for all blessings He has given.

QUANDARY (A Memo for President Obama)

Quixotic jousts against rebellious windmills are bound to fail.
Unwary do-gooder leaders climbing the Socialist's trail
Are being flung down a rocky and humiliating terrain.
Notwithstanding expensive hopes, they have achieved zero gain;
Dreams of glory for a socialist-directed Ogre State
Are fading fast--destined for an apt inglorious dustbin fate...
Remember, Sir, FREEDOM is deeply ingrained in our nature.
You dare joust against stubborn rebels past, present, and future?
