BROTHERS AND SISTERS OWE NOTHING TO ANYONE EXCEPT TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER...ROMANS 13:10
Recently the roofs on our complex were replaced. Every day during their work when workers stood on top of the roofs, the temperature reached110 degrees.
They were all Hispanic workers who SANG while they labored!
Were some of them undocumented. Possibly.
Were they doing work that deprived white workers of jobs? I doubt it very much.
At present our immigration policies are neither humane nor just.
Cruel leadership holds sway.
An estimated 10,000Â children were snatched from their mothers' arms and put in cages, in 168 locations, some as infants below 4 years of age.
I wrote a poem this week:
Ants
Remembering as a child
a hot July summer day
Nothing better to do
Hover over a solemn procession
of Red Ants making
their orderly way
Torture them from on high
Displace their formations
Make them run in circles
Â
It has always been so
With high and mighty insiders
Towering above the throng
Of all the lowly outsiders
Struggling to make their way
Over rough ground and hurdles
I hope I have outgrown
those childhood devilments
Â
Yet looking around today
I see more of the high and mighty
Put little childen in cages
Disrupt and confuse the migrants
Who like ants process toward the border
Erect high walls too big to overcome
It's an old old story
Wreaking vengeance from on high.
Â
And now creatures from another world
Tinier than ants more subtle
They are the Air Borne Troops
Microbes, a small but mighty foe
Infiltrate and defences do not hold
And the High and Mighty
Masked and distanced
Are humbled on their thrones.
William John Fitzgerald
