Sometimes I miss the company of a woman,
her love, her touch, her tenderness.

Doing enjoyable things with her, pleasing her
with words and actions.

The sound of her voice, her eyes looking at me
lovingly, her comforting hugs.

Maybe not having been with one in ten years
at times make me a bit batty, lol.

And I forget how when it’s bad, it’s hellish,
her harsh words, complaints, indifference.

The disappointments, the agonies, the
approaching heartbreak.

Blessed are those men and women
for whom relationships remain heavenly.

Crime cases where ministers have murdered their wives.
Priests who sexually abused children.
A Christian wife,raised in a prominent Christian family, marred a good Christian man and found a Christian boyfriend she convinced to murder her good Christian husband.
For these people, religion didn’t seem to work.

Consider all the blood shed in the name
of religion.
Consider innocent women tortured and burned
at the stake as supposed witches by
religious men, acting more like demons.

One could come up with various excuses for
these evil believers: free will, psychopaths,
possessed by demons, a devil, etc.

But I find it puzzling that despite beginning
as believers some become so diabolically evil.
And I wonder why a loving God doesn’t step in
and save them from themselves and spare
others from being harmed or murdered by them.

Not a shot was fired. Not a bomb fell.
Instead we were bombarded with rock music
and some of the best rock bands on the planet.
I’ll never forget the great British Invasion
that began in the mid sixties.
I’ll never forget how much fun and joy
those incredibly talented Brits brought to our shores.
If all only all invasions could bring joy and entertainment,
instead of bombs, bullets, deaths and misery.
