Hell's Version of Creation

The rich grow richer ...
The evangelicals have their judges and
A sec of education dismantling public education ...
The malcontents have a new lease for bigotry and racism.


It will take a mighty effort for this nation
To find its better angels
As the evil angels have hit us with a vengeance.


Stranger Things, indeed.
The Liar in Chief has opened the gate
And hell is pouring through.


Lots of people profit from hell.
Always have, always will.
Hell offers and hell delivers.


For the time being.
But only and ultimately only to destroy.
... Everything.


Hell's version of creation.
Not light, but pitch dark death.
The death of faith, hope and love.
The end of grace, mercy and peace.


It has always been this way.
And only with effort can we find again
Our better angels.


It can be done.
It has been done.
It will be done.


And with tremendous effort.
With terrible damage already inflicted.
Before the demons take flight.


To my friends and family, remain faithful.
Stay engaged.
And vote ... for heaven's sake, vote.


No one's perfect, but the philosophy of
Our better angels is clear:


Freedom:
For women to choose.
For marriage equality.
For better wages and better schools.
For universal health care.
For our National Parks.
For the whales and the wolves.
For all of God's creatures, great and small.


Thy Kingdom come.
Thy will be done.
On earth as it is in heaven.
