"To Wander"

 
“To Wander”
 
cji/cn
8/24/13
 
To wander in darkness
un-understanding truth
confused and alone
while amid the crowds
like the ibis in trees
calling and calling each
then as a flock to flee
feeling that they’re free;
 
Citizens to wander today
freedoms to squander too
allowing others to control
hiding under entitlements
acting in their mind as trolls
absorbing the unimportant
pretending to be so smart
accepting evil as their art;
 
Unheeding of the Scriptures
especially Isaiah to ignore
calling James to be as straw
wondering why they’re blind
unhearing and unfeeling
to wander in the darkness
of daylight ever so bright
living only thus in the night!
