What kind of person are you?
Why don’t you care enough to get involved?
All these people suffer
And my family suffers
We all suffer
But, for what—your glory?
Then comes the satiation
Of fingers or fists
Raised up high
Life together
At first so sweet
Turns into life separated
Without a choice
Or with a choice
To keep it that way
Since the other departed
Help from on high is then sent
To quote and comfort
From our lover’s book
All things work together for good
His ways are not our ways
You will never be tested
At least not beyond what you can endure
I’ve heard them all
I’ve even said many
Back when magic words were the only cure
Thus, when silence remains the only offering
And the only assurance one receives
Comes from incestuous prayers and esoteric incantations
That’s when it’s fair to ask new questions
About not loving or respecting the silent treatment
Or the inanity of his children
