A Tune and A Tear
by Gloria Poole, R.N.gloriapoole ®©

Simmering Rage 
catching up to me,
fueled by,
stone-walling.

Stone-Walling!
Stone-Walling!

Heads stuck in sand,
pretending not to see, 
ba-bies in pieces, 
Stone-walling!
Stone-Walling!

How could people 
be so blind?
so as not to see
the agony
of shredded flesh?

Stone-Walling!
Stone-Walling!

A Tune and a Tear,
consumes my thoughts,
until in-fin-i-ty;

Stone-Walling!
Stone-Walling!

A tear is not 
enough for me, 
the tune reverberates;

Stone-Walling!
Stone-Walling!

People move around,
along the Mall, 
walking, 
and talking,
incessant-ly.

Stone-Walling!
Stone-Walling!

They seem to be 
alive and free, 
but yet they are in
chains. 

Stone-Walling!
Stone-Walling!

They call it 'choice' 
when what they mean, 
is horror,
grim and vile.

Stone-Walling!
Stone-Walling!

A Tune and a Tear,
rises up in me; 
a sadness,
overwhelming.

Stone-Walling!
Stone-Walling!

They shop 
and buy,
and eat, 
and laugh, 
while blood flows,
down the drain.

Stone-walling!
Stone-Walling!

Their hearts are hard,
their souls are dead,
their eyes just
cannot see.

Stone-Walling!
Stone-Walling!

The tiny parts 
the tiny feet, 
hands a half
inch big.
chopped with cleavers,
smeared on slides.

Stone-Walling!
Stone-Walling!

The tears flow 
freely,
down my face, 
the agony of grief,
for unnamed
children of the world.

Stone-walling!
Stone-walling!

The nation's dead,
the future's gone, 
poured down the 
drain, 
as 'choice'.

Stone-Walling!
Stone-walling!

The 'leaders' stall,
and prance about, 
making foolish speeches,
with blinders on.

Stone-Walling!
Stone-walling!

They talk about
$900B,
or is only $8?
their utter 
vacancy of minds!

Stone-Walling!
Stone-Walling!

While babies die,
day in and out, 
slaughtered,
merciless-ly.

Stone-Walling!
Stone-Walling!

Like Puppets 
worked,
with strings,
 and mime.

Stone-Walling!
Stone-Walling!

Phony people!
plastic hearts,
no love,
for anyone.

Stone-Walling!
Stone-Walling!

They shop 
and buy,
and eat and laugh,
and say,
 don't talk to me, 

Stone-Walling!
Stone-Walling!

Don't tell me
'bout the blood
or the pain 
of the ba-by.

Call it 'choice'
then pretend,
the life
wasn't meant to be.

Stone-Walling!
Stone-Walling!

My tears flow down,
all over me,
til hysteria,
seems near.

Stone-Walling, 
doesn't work
for me;
tsunami grief
engulfs.

Millions of innocents
were killed,
and never
even named.

Their blood poured
out, 
their flesh ripped up,
on altars of
false gods.

Stone-Walling!
Stone-Walling!

How could this be,
considered 'right", 
when it is so
very wrong?

Stone-Walling!
Stone-Walling!

A tune and tear,
began this song,
to spread 
the agony;
til hearts break,
and vows are made, 
to overcome; 
the stone-walled hearts, 
and open blinded eyes.

There cannot be 
such a 'choice' 
you see; 
evil must 
not win.

Rout the devil;
save the lives, 
of tiny human ones;
lock away 
bad people please,
outside the
city gates,
end the scourge, 
stop the plagues, 
wel-come 
human life.

Have tears of joy, 
and tunes of love,
and celebrate
human life.

Feel the joy 
of babies' toothless grins;
see them learn
to crawl, 
and walk, 
and hear them 
say your name.


And know a mother's love, 
as your tiny one, 
grasps your finger, 
and recognizes
your face.

Accept the love,
a baby brings,
into your desperate life,
accept the gift that
GOD gives to you,
when sperm meets egg,
in you;

Don't turn away,
from greatest challenge,
you will ever know,
to raise a thriving
child,
there is no greater love,
than this; 
no greater gift
at all,
than human 
embodiment of life.

Spirit in the flesh, 
the ultimate gift, 
of life; 
that flows with 
sperm into the egg,
a man,
and woman's love;
sealed in flesh.

Connecting the past,
and future for you, 
for commun-i-ty
and country too.
Your greatest gift,
you have to give, 
is reproducing you.

Seeing your future, 
teaching your progeny,
to love THE LORD,
and enjoy life;
Embrace life;
tear down the wall,
be the shining light. 

Say NO to 'choice' 
and yes to life; 
and NO to misery.

Shed your tears at
grad-ua-tions, 
weddings,
laugh, 
and live, 
and love.

Celebrate.
Embrace in married love.
Choose Life, 
give birth to life.
 
Reject 'choice';
don't kill.
