Nicely written, although I'm not sure why security would kill you. Most people are good, certainly values have changed but that happens with every generation, they define their own truth. Still lots of love left in the world.

You are right, there has to be a better way. We cannot go on like this. No oil left to light the smallest candle of faith or lamps to guide .... This is a real gem. Well done b

Comment from DSMalott
Well written.
Your free verse style brought the theme home for me. Great depth of thought and word choice. The emotion and passion was clear in all lines.
Good job.

Comment from Glasstruth
It seems as if the world is going mad as you write, "Huston we have a problem"! Your words are tightly packed, flows smoothly with the message. Overkilli, it is. Is there anything we can do? Just go mad, I suppose. Well penned. Les

Comment from stroncoso1
You wrote a very thoughtful piece of prose. It is opinionated, political and to the point. I loved it! You definitely have a way with words. I would suggest "Houston" (spelling) in the line of "Huston we have a problem," But "THIS is overkill" is quite good and well written. Actually several lines are powerful, as in the last verse "No lamps to guide the way to the wedding feast banquet table or to one's self identity." Way to go!
