Grey spaces- Stuck inbetween.

Oft times I ponder
Thoughts wondering lost
In between, through and across
The tapestries and gear levers which weave the forces
and orchestrates the mechanics of the world into working order
Complex Concepts and doctrines. Food for thought.
Often Sore Vexing the conscience of him who seeks deeper than he aught

In search of the root causes
Nation within nations at war
Black on black, white on white and brown on brown. An eye for an eye to the death they fought  
Lead by Power mongers dictating from the top of corporate and federal office
Down to the kneeling knees of those who plea for their lives before druglords

Unjustifiable injustices
Where is the voice of judgment we've entrusted unto judges
They the gate keepers of the scales of justice
Yet they turn a blind eye to the atrocities that till today, continue unpunished

Makes one wonder what direction is mankind headed in
Let's not pretend like this shit don't exist
Where's our values, integrity and basic humanity as a collective?
Instead, Dog eat dog is what were taught, each man for himself

Maybe its for the better
Better yet, sleep with one eye open, for that matter
Trust not even thy brethren
For Cain would slit your throat when you least expected

Jealousy breeds envy
Envy manifests action

Therefore-

Covet not your neighbors wife
Save yourself brethren, pluck out your eyes
Rather enter the gates of heaven blind
Than being swallowed into the belly of the beast with perfect sight

Easier said than done
Especially when one wonders
Like- Between the embrace of two arms lies the virtue of love
But between two thighs lies the foul allure of lust
How does one remain pure and righteous father
When the very woman which I love has both two thighs and two arms

Is it a trap
Or just a Test
God Turning the morality screws far past its threshold
Till we lust even more for the fruits which the devils sowed

It all boils down to choices
Snakes seduce us with disguised poisons
Father help me to hear the right voices
Ending up in hell would render life pointless
Lead me into all righteousness, beginning first with my choices
