“Those Numbers”

I heard a piece – removed my peace –
On Nazi numbers – such release
Of wonder – how they had been used;
“ ’Twas IBM helped with abuse”.

Lord, no doubt this will join “Fake news”
As category some will choose;
For truth in war? The first to go;
Let civvies see what facts can show.

Deceit is widespread now, it seems,
So what is said’s not what it means;
It all relates to power’s throne,
And how folks bring the bacon home.

Lord, this o’erwhelms me day by day;
I saw at work how it would play
Out to advantage of the “Wise”
(At least as viewed from “Winner’s eyes”).

Folks don’t want justice; more, “Just-us”
They say of “Losers” – “Life is tough”;
As if such justifies their acts;
Then obfuscate, with words, the facts.

“Stu, one can use my words all ways;
Such choices given – there Satan plays
His power-games – so ease ’er back;
Be circumspect – you tactics lack.

“My strategy you have in hand;
So far it is from “Churchly” brand;
Ec-clesia’ – the ‘Called out ones’
To Kingdom-layer, and life which comes –

“Into fulfillment by and by;
But in the meantime all can fly
Right over all such silliness,
And there find Kingdom’s blessedness.

Okay Lord thanks for this.
