Living by ego
Stunts communion with the soul
The Divine awaits

“Believe as you will”, you say,
“I can respect that”, you say with a smile.
In your heart of hearts you are only tolerating,
You know they are wrong,
They don’t believe as you do so they must be wrong.
It matters not that we share this same walk together,
They have the same pains,
They have the same hopes,
They have the same dreams,
They fear,
They mourn loss,
They live and die just as you do,
But yet you self-righteously sit in judgement.
Is that what your God wants,
Is that what my God wants,
I seriously doubt it.
If you wish to be judge and jury,
Look no further than the heathen within
And you will find plenty of crimes to punish.

Country on the brink
Middle-class being trampled
Extinction awaits
Corporate greed at a high
Climbing the backs of workers
Shareholders don’t care
Its all about their returns
Screw blood, sweat, and tears~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~

Weary from the day
Sunset draws me to slumber
Like a lover’s kiss
Embraced by the tranquil night
I bid a tender adieu~~Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~

Sillhouetted owl
Feathers ruffle silently

I do not fear death
For this life is illusion
Cosmic theater
Of which I’m a thespian
On my way to my next show

We are one world
Though we seek ways to divide
Is peace so painful~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
