Memoirs from a mad mind

(an excerpt from)

 

 

when we as society

allow integrity

values and morals

to be

compromised

we as a society

put ourselves

upon menial

positions of lower

standards

 

the acceptance

of immorality

is more easily

swept beneath

the rugs

of our deceit

 

the break down

the fabric

of society

begins to lash

Out

We act without

though of mind

 

violence, depravity

debauchery

becomes

habit that Fall upon

Every facet of life

 

breakdown of ethics

the moral principles

that governs a person’s

or group’s behavior

Falls to wayside

 

Those gifts

of integrity values

and morals

become nothing

more than a

manipulating

tool that falls upon

the beating heart

of humanity

 

acts of love end up

being not true of

heart

 

the blaming of

others becomes

second nature

 

And the life of

a perpetual victim

Blossoms

and begins it’s

tread upon

all endeavors

that pertain

to healthy life

 

we find ourselves

on trails of

calamity begging

for wisdom to

hear our cry

 

But wisdom

mocks and laughs

upon us when

we call upon her

name perplexed

we become and

wonder why She

is nowhere to be found

 

Integrity values

and morals

These three simple

words that

bind the fabric

of society

together

it creates order

amongst the chaos

 

Integrity the

quality of being

honest and having

strong moral

principles; moral

uprightness.

 

Values the regard

that something

is held to deserve;

the importance,

worth, or usefulness

of something.

 

Morals a lesson,

especially one

concerning what

is right or prudent,

 

But it seems more

and more these

days we are losing

this concept upon

the heart of humanity

 

There’s more

slavery

racism and hatred

infesting the

heart of society

then ever in history

 

the segregation

among our

brothers and sisters

has pushed the

true meaning of

love and

spirituality upon

the back burners

of our life

Trust loses its way

 

We become so

entangled upon

the

unrighteous self

 

that we find

ourselves

And our minds

Falling upon the

feudal concepts

of heart

And simplicity

has lost its way

 

So I say bind these

concepts to your

heart integrity values

and morals

 

bind these concepts

to your heart

like Gold

that was forged

upon the

saviors chalice

 

Bind these to

your heart like

feathers upon

the beating heart

of Phoenix

 

bind these

to your heart as

breath is to life

 

bind these concepts

to your heart

Integrity values

and morals
