Jesus said to love your enemies
Yet humans seem to have an "unless"
Their own lives, further,
Their own childrens' lives
More valuable than all others
Even those dying for them, yes
Jesus said to love your neighbor
Yet humanity's walls flourish across the earth
Selfishness and pride, further,
Greed and arrogance
Hold them captive within their fences
Their own blades cutting them from Love's birth
Jesus said to be kind to the ungrateful and wicked
Yet True Faith to them appears hard to find
God's Justice, further,
God's Judgment
Not even factored into their spirituality
Mice in wheels following their minds
Jesus said to do good to your enemies
Yet they remain skeptical He is the answer
His Grace, further,
His Unconditional Love
Slandered by scriptured media junkies as
Contaminated self-fulfilling prophecy stirs
Jesus said be merciful, just as your Father is merciful
Or shall humans forever play their own god
Their own condemner, further,
Their own persecutor, further,
Their own executioner
Or will we come at last to really
Trust
What Jesus said
Do it for Real.
Faith
Hope
Love
