(For the unborn victims...) <br /> <br />sins of commission <br />sins of omission <br />as grains of sands... <br />fearing to take stands? <br />yet drops of blood <br />soaking all lands! <br /> <br />can't hear the wailing <br />and most are failing <br />not grieving... <br />not caring <br />for their lot... <br />failing to act <br />failing in duty <br />the only God... <br /> <br />piercing sobs <br />deafened by cruel mobs! <br />so endless wailing <br />yet most are failing <br />unfeeling <br />unmoved <br />by their woeful lot... <br /> <br />sins of commission <br />sins of omission <br />each one shall answer <br />for their blood <br />the torrential <br />horrifying flood! <br /> <br />who is my mother? <br />where is my father? <br />to whom I belong? <br />weeping too long... <br />resounding sobs <br />stifled by steely-eyed mobs! <br /> <br />blood is my lot? <br />tears mixing with blood... <br />through tears... <br />through blood... <br />I do see my God!<br /><br />Dorothy Kardas, Psy.D.
