IN THE JUSTAPOSITION OF POWER

It is said by the wise

that power concedes

nothing without a struggle.

 

If that be so,

let the power-hungry

warmongers struggle

in vain and despair…

 

For they are not

the oppressed of power

but are the oppressors of it.

 

Let them ever suffer in despair,

as they are not the abused—

but the bigoted abusers.

 

That they know what they do,

let the wicked suffer in abject pain;

for they are not the literal crucified

but are the evil satanic nailing crucifiers.

 

Let those intoxicated with power

know the sobering truth of Babylon—

that their power-drunkenness is in the

mist of a rude awakening from God’s power:

 

“Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for

Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.”

(Gal 6:7)

 

“He gives power to the faint, and to him who has no

might he increases strength. Even youths shall faint

and be weary, and young men shall fall exhausted;

but they who wait for the Lord shall renew their

strength; they shall mount up with wings

 

like eagles; they shall run and not  be weary;

they shall walk and not faint. (Is 40:29-31)
