Ode to Psalm 82

All the confusion…
all the dissent…
all the discord…
suddenly became so clear
when I passed the dollar bill
to the homeless man on the street
and caught the words,
“In God We Trust.”
What united us
when we became a nation
has been
removed…
ignored…
and lost…
in our grasping for worldly power
and egos out of control.
Do something, God!
Judge the nations of the earth;
they belong to you.*
 
*Psalm 82:8 (CEV)
