"Jaded Giant"

I am the jaded giant

fading amoungst the clouds.

In a circumstance of forced compliance

Peering worrisome above the crowds.

I move ever gracefully.

Calmly and secure.

My ever eye seeing those lost faithlessly

in a world disguised as pure.

I notice the ones who are lost.

As my tears create a monsoon.

Their suffering is not without cost

For me to interrupt is taboo.

It breaks my giant heart

as they only know one thing.

Self-destruction and hatred for each other,

All because of varying skin color.

As I ponder what it must be like, alas, I still feel the sting.

Asking myself if they would hate me also if I removed myself from the dark.

Still I am their jaded giant, placed here upon command.

To watch over this dying culture.

Without the slightest way to understand.

I send my ravens for disclosure

but they seldom bring back news I want to comprehend.

I am only a jaded giant watching over a beautiful blue and green world.

If only they would have the dignity within themselves

To love each other with their hearts unfurled.

Then its a possibility these creatures would no longer kill each other like lions against gazelles.

I hear mother Earth scream!

as she is torn completely to shreds.

I try to heal her with my tears as they gleam

Tumbling down upon her blood stained flower bed.

I may just be a jaded giant

fading amongst these clouds.

All I ask of you is compliance

In this beautiful world torn apart by the hate I see in these crowds.
