DAY 49
POLITICAL PRISONERS
A & B

THEY STAND TALL AND PROUD
THEY ARE, YOU KNOW, FROM THE BEST STOCK
BORN AND RAISED TO BE THE BEST
TO ACHIEVE THE HIGHEST GOALS
TO HELP AID THIS COUNTRY
IN JUSTICE, TRUTH AND HONOR

WHAT COULD BE SO WRONG WITH THIS
FUTURE - THESE CAREER GOALS?

And there came to town
a young man of twenty riding on a small donkey
He was tall and lanky, but able to lift heavy loads
He soon became the town's favorite workman
The shopsmiths would call him to lift
what could not be lifted by only one man
The baker, the grocer, the banker, the woodsman
all needed his help
He was more than just a valuable asset to the town
This town could not survive without him

One day a lone wolf came
and tore this young man's leg straight from his body
Even though still honored, the boy was no longer
a valuable asset or the source of pride
for the community
He was, essentially, a burden

TWO MEN, ALONE, ON A PATH
THEY KNOW NOT THE WOLVES WITHIN
THE POLITICAL MACHINE
NOR THOSE WITHIN THEIR CHURCHES
THEY PREACH AND TEACH
THEY TELL OF THEIR EXPLOITS
THEY ADVERTISE THEIR GOD
BUT SOMETHING IS MISSING
SOMETHING WHICH HOLDS IT ALL TOGETHER
IS NOT PRESENT

CAN YOU GUESS WHAT IT IS?

THE WOLVES WILL SURELY COME
AND THESE BOYS' DREAMS WILL BE NO MORE
DID THEY PURSUE IN VAIN?
DID THEY HOPE IN VAIN?
DID THEY NOT COUNT THE COST OF PUBLIC SERVICE?

AND HEREIN LIES THE TRUTH TO THIS TALE

I
WAS NOT
THE AUTHOR AND ORIGINATOR
OF THE PLAN

I
WAS NO
LONGER THE ONE SERVED
AND OBEYED

I
WAS
AS THIS COUNTRY HAS DONE
UNSEATED, DETHRONED
ONLY CONSULTED
WHEN THERE WAS TRAGEDY

PEOPLE, THE LESSON IS:
DON'T MAKE YOUR OWN PLANS
DON'T ATTEMPT TO BELIEVE
THAT I AM ABSENT
SO THAT YOU HAVE TO MAKE YOUR "MARK"
WITHOUT ME
DON'T PURSUE
WHAT I DON'T BIRTH
AND EMPOWER

POLITICS IS A GAME TO MANY
BUT ONLY A FEW PLAY IT WELL
TO PLAY IT TO WIN
YOU WILL SURELY DECEIVE
FOR THIS COUNTRY
IS RUN ON DECEPTION
ON THOSE WHO CAN TRICK THE MOST PEOPLE
IT IS NO LONGER A COUNTRY OF ABSOLUTE
JUSTICE, TRUTH AND HONOR

NO, IT IS RUN BY THOSE WHO DECEIVE
TO ACHIEVE ALL THAT THEY WANT

MY PEOPLE WILL NOT BE FOUND
PLAYING THIS GAME
NEITHER WILL THEY WIN, WHEN THEY DO PLAY
UNTIL
THIS COUNTRY'S HEART IS CHANGED

STEP DOWN FROM THE PODIUM, YOUNG MEN
CHANGE YOUR NAMES
FIND MY COURSE FOR YOU
PURSUE ME
I AM
YOUR TEACHER
DECIDE TO BE
ALL THAT I HAVE PLANNED
FOR YOU TO BE

FOR AS YOU CONTINUE
TO STRIVE AND PLAN
I WILL BRING FORTH RUIN
IF YOU WILL NOT LISTEN TO MY PLAN
IF YOU WILL NOT STEP DOWN ON YOUR OWN
IF YOU WILL NOT SUBJECT YOURSELVES TO MY WAYS
TO THE TRUTH
YOU WILL FALL
AND TAKE MANY WITH YOU

I IMPLORE
YOU TO SEEK ME
TO LAY ALL YOUR PLANS DOWN
TO PUT YOUR AMBITIONS, DRIVE TO SUCCEED
AND DESIRE FOR ACHIEVEMENT
AT MY FEET
AND HUMBLY ASK TO BE
ONCE MORE
MY SONS
OBEDIENT
LOVING
HUMBLE
LISTENING . . .
EVER LISTENING FOR MY PLANS
AND MY WILL

POLITICAL PRISONERS
YOU ARE UNTIL
YOU MAKE THE BREAK

HINT OF THE NEW WORK:
THE WATER IS BEING POISONED
THE SOULS ARE DYING FROM TOXIC POLLUTANTS
THE CHURCHES NO LONGER SPEAK THE TRUTH
NO LONGER CAN THE CHILDREN
FOLLOW ME PURELY
WITHIN THE STRUCTURE
OF
THE CHURCHES
OF
THE UNITED STATES

YOU RISE TO THE PODIUM
AND YOU ARE PRAISED
YOU WRITE ON YOUR BLOG
AND YOU ARE PRAISED
YOU SPEAK CANDIDLY ON RADIO, TV
AND YOU ARE PRAISED

WHO
IS
PRAISING YOU
AND WHY?
DO THEIR HEARTS KNOW ME
OR DO THEY PRAISE YOU
TO CONTROL YOU?

IF
YOU SPOKE TRUTH
DIRECTLY FROM ME
WOULD THE PRAISE STOP?

THE ANSWER IS
YES

WHAT WILL YOU CHOOSE:
THE PRAISE OF MAN
OR
TO SPEAK THE TRUTH?

THE CHURCHES
CALL OUT FOR YOU TO COME
THEY LINE THE WALLS OF THE AUDITORIUMS
TO HEAR YOU
THE SCHOOLS AWAIT YOUR ENTRANCE
AND CONTRIBUTION
BUT
WHAT IS MISSING?

THE FULL TRUTH

SPEAK THE TRUTH
AND YOU WILL NO LONGER BE WELCOME
SPEAK OUTRIGHT APOSTASY
AND ALL WANT YOU TO COME
AND COME AND COME . . .

CHOOSE
OR
I
WILL
CHOOSE
FOR
YOU
TWO

__________________________
TIME'S UP!

MY CHOICE:
I WILL
NO LONGER
ALLOW YOU TWO
TO BASK IN THE POPULARITY
FOR YOUR STANCE OF COWARDICE
YOUR ATTENTION-SEEKING STANCE
WHICH CAUSES YOU TO
ONLY
SPEAK / WRITE/ SUPPORT
PARTIAL TRUTHS
BUT
DISDAIN AND CENSOR
ALL
THAT WOULD CAUSE THE PEOPLE
TO TAKE ACTION
TO PURSUE ME
TO BECOME
ALL
THAT I DEEM

I
WILL SHUT YOU DOWN
AND CLOSE YOU UP
AND THEN YOU WILL SPEND YOUR DAYS
AND NIGHTS
SEEKING ME
WITH
ALL YOUR HEART

ONE DAY
YOU WILL FIND ME
WHEN YOU LET GO OF ALL THAT CAUSES YOU
TO TURN FROM TRUTH
AND FINALLY, UNEQUIVOCALLY
LAY YOUR LIVES DOWN
TO SPEAK
TO WRITE
TO SUPPORT
ONLY AND FULLY
TRUTH

OTHERWISE
YOU ARE ENTIRELY WORTHLESS
TO MY KINGDOM
AND A DISGRACE TO
MY NAME

FIND ME, BOYS

I
ALONE
CAN MAKE
YOU MEN
TRUTHFUL
HONEST
COURAGEOUS
GOD-FILLED
IMPASSIONED
MEN
