Never Let You Fall

 

Stay strong she who battles,

For all who inhabit her heart.

Stay strong the love of so many souls,

Let not hope from you depart.

And during the darkest of days,

And through the longest of nights,

When that dark spectre of terror

Conjures fear, despair and fright,

Know that God in all his majesty,

And resplendent in all his glory,

Watches over you and protects,

Because he has yet to complete your story.

See God sometimes puts us in places,

That can be so overwhelming,

Where the light of hope and happiness

Appears to rapidly recede into the gloaming.

It can be hard to understand why,

It can be hard to fathom the reason,

It can be hard to comprehend the toil

And figure out the season.

But God does not give us burden,

That we cannot shoulder and support,

Nor does he cast us adrift,

With no hope of finding port.

For his bigger plans require our faith,

To know and hear his call,

For He is always watching,

And will never let you fall.

 

 

It's just business.......

 

‘It’s just business’ they say;

That’s always the response they use.

‘You need to grow a thicker skin’,

As if their lack of morals is so easy to excuse. 

 

These are the same people who pontificate

So that all the world can see,

But as soon as the eyes of accountability are turned,

Drop any illusion of integrity.

 

I always wonder how they act at home,

And with those that they value as friends.

Do they also stab them in the back,

And walk away, soulless, refusing to make amends?

 

Hypocrites!

Fucking hypocrites all!

I’d rather deal with an honest sheister,

Than this two faced bull.

 

DEI, Social Credit and ESG

A litany of shrouds to shield poor ethics,

Because once their true nature is revealed,

It’s always comes down to performance metrics.

 

Integrity is the cornerstone of our business!

(Until we stand to lose the deal)

We place people at the centre of everything!

(Until we can get this at a steal)

We want to build with our partners!

(Until we need to use them for cover)

We always pay our bills!

(Unless we want to fuck them over)

 

So continue to mire in your decrepit world,

Convince yourself you’re Lord of all you see!

Just know we never forget,

And soon the piper will demand his fee.

 

You say I’m naive.

You say I’m soft inside.

You say that I’ll never win,

As if modelling integrity is to be decried.

 

But you’re wrong!

You couldn’t be further from the lede,

And as your Mpire falls I’ll wave goodbye

As I pass you and use integrity to succeed.

 

Hidden from View

 

I must admit, I must profess,

I didn’t always comprehend,

The level to which their mind control,

Did encompass and extend.

 

You may demand, and rightly so,

To know of whom I speak,

To put a name to the graven face,

Who choose fear to mould the weak.

 

When truth be told and voiced aloud,

We didn’t make it hard,

Because when we bathe in ignorance,

All courage do we discard.

 

The courage to care when others fall,

To not look away and cower,

To recognize that ‘they’ are us,

And next they’ll be climbing our tower.

 

I was one, but never more,

Because others helped me see,

I scaled the ramparts of my fear,

And confronted my own mediocrity.

 

So what was once hidden from my mind

And camouflaged from my view,

Now stands erect and crystal clear,

A bastion of the truth.

 

It would be easy to look upon those still sleeping,

And cast my insult and derision,

Much harder the task to help them see,

And form their own opinion.

 

And yet you still ask ‘who are the ones

Who wield fear to control the masses’?

Who convince you that your lying eyes

Are blind to all that for reality passes?

 

The truth you seek so desperately,

Will only truly be revealed,

When you are prepared to confront yourself,

And to your own fear and indifference not yield.

 

The power to live as one desires,

Will always reside within us.

The strength that epitomizes the human soul,

Will always be victorious.

 

My request, therefore, in these dark times

Is to not blindly believe what you are told,

But to question, challenge, and rationalize,

Be strong, be brave, be bold!

 

For strength will always hold your stead,

And courage will always their lies deter,

While boldness will a beacon shine,

And forever help you prosper.
