A Poem-- No God, No Guns


As much doom and gloom as I write about regarding the brainwashing of our children in public schools, I must confess there is at least one 15 year old that thinks for him or herself and honors God before all else.

de Andréa

The following is a poem, it is written by an anonymous 15 year old student in Phoenix Arizona, and sent to me by one of my readers whose name is Wayne: Since the name of “God” is mentioned in the “Pledge of Allegiance” and “The Lord's Prayer” they are not allowed in most public schools, so this kid in Arizona wrote a new school prayer:

Now I sit me down in school
Where praying is against the rule

For this great nation under God,
Finds mention of Him very odd.

If Scripture now the class recites,
it violates the Bill of Rights.

And anytime my head I bow
becomes a Federal matter now.

Our hair can be purple, orange, or green,
that’s no offense; it's a freedom scene.

The law is specific, the law is precise.
Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice.

For praying in a public hall,
might offend someone with no faith at all.

In silence alone we must meditate,
God's name is prohibited by the state.

We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks,
and pierce our noses, tongues, and cheeks.

They've outlawed guns, but first the Bible,
to quote the Good Book makes me liable.

We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,
and the 'unwed daddy,' our Senior King.

But it's 'inappropriate' to teach right from wrong,
we’re taught that such 'judgments' do not belong.

We can get our condoms and birth controls,
study witchcraft, vampires and totem poles.

But the Ten Commandments are not allowed.
No word of God must reach this crowd.

It is scary here I must confess,
when chaos reigns the school's a mess.

So, Lord, this silent plea I make:
Should I be shot; my soul please take!

Amen…

THE BOTTOM LINE: What an awesome kid…

While this poem says an awful lot, about the hypocrisy of our government public schools, regarding what is allowed and what is not.
As well as a philosophy gone awry there is one very special fear, that I see appear, and maybe only I took notice of this caveat.

It shows up on the very last line, where it says “Should I be shot, my soul please take". And just before, it says: “So Lord, this silent plea I make.
It indicates a feeling of expectation, even in a zone that is Gun free. To be shot in place as that, could it be, no... not unless it is for Jesus sake.

Amen…

de Andréa
