devout indulgent smug.
Mankind in all of their dealings
Relate to a myriad of ways
Goodness the way for most beings
But some unscrupulous ones hold sway
Those virtuous hold their heads high
Honesty supreme devout in resolve
Sincerity in high esteem and well nigh
Oiling well the wheels of progress
But indulgent in all abundance
On the contrary are those wayward
Smug in conceit, greed and connivance
Barriers to good living untoward
Balance of the reverent and insincere
Playground of both angels and devils
The way of the karma, yin and yang

Yes.. I suppose we can choose either good or bad..I wonder if it's easy to change direction once you set off down one path..thoughtful writing as ever
ReplyDeleteInteresting poem. We are all stained with the mark of Cain. Then it is free will. Choices.
