Smoldered Cinders

Scanning scaring
cunning
Corona Virus
is consuming many

can we not ask it
to abandon
smoldering
cindering human beings
for no reason

except for man's insinuations
interfering with creative nature
to prove his powerful existence

Where is God veiled
in his
OMNISCIENT
OMNIPOTENT
AND
OMNIPRESENCE

Sun is asking

Wake up all Spiritualists
why are you basking
in hope the cindering
will awake the dormant mind
of humankind

behaving worse than animals

I'm getting it right. Are you trying to say that people should be trying to gather the spirit of everyone, to get rid of the bad things about humanity? That if we all band together, that we can prevail over this virus or anything that threatens the world? I think that you have taken a page from Ronald Reagan's book when he said that if an alien race were to come here to conquer us, we would all band together and become brothers against it. A nice thought. Yes, we are supposed to be the pinnacle of life here and have dominion over the Earth. Let's put aside our differences and behave like this thing is an alien! ~ Geezer.

There is value to commenting and critique, tell us how you feel about our work.
This must be the place, 'cause there ain't no place like this place anywhere near this place.

you compliment me
more than perhaps I deserve

My own mind follows me
none else
all is coincidence perhaps

Alien no
its a BLOODY BLOOD RED VIRUS
let off to humanity blow
silly glow
though!

Good point you make, Lynn. I think humankind is the worst animal on earth. We deserve this pandemic, collectively, tho' many of us have behaved well and treated all things bright and beautiful very kindly.
It's all in Revelations, you know, the 4 horsemen of the Apocalysis. Pestilence, Greed, War and Death, I seem to remember. It's all part of God's plan, tho' it's mighty difficult to understand. When we finally face our Creator, we shall know the truth by His Holy Light. That's what I believe.
Personally, I don't regard the virus as alien. Perhaps aliens are superior to us, who knows? Anyway, you've tackled this subject very well. Tx for sharing and keep safe.
