Children of a Lesser God

Contagion ceremoniously weaves its harvest into a fabric of un-social inclusion Haunted by lack of humility and lost serenity it serenades through the masses In God We Trust but who listened to Nietzsche who proclaimed that she is dead Lest we believe that a deity or other exists and really knows what she's doing Divinity does not adhere to the faith that we are immune to such a great reaper Revelations come at a price and blood money changes gloves and sterile hands Engulfed in statistics and mortality rates we watch breathlessly old news in pain No human creature is more equal than others when pandemonium is pandemic Opulence luxury and money do not protect us from the insidious bastard bug Foreshadow a lesson in morality diffidence acceptance and washing our hands Alamo meets the apocalypse in cryptic proportions of ignorance and surrender Loo rolls pasta hand soap have vanished from shelves as have bread and wine Endangered species need to make offerings with the latter and worship at home Surreptitious veneration of non-believers stakes false claims at burgeoning altars Superficially cleansed with an insane amount of fake oaths in hypocritical pride End stage scenarios roam beliefs narratives and reason beyond any much doubt Reinvent biblical prophesies as devotes of virgin birth bow to rigor mortis instead Grotesque gargoyles utter a cynical message on shrines mausoleums and crosses Ogres whirl a ballet of youthful joy while funeral processions have come to a halt Deliriously they applaud the harvest and struggle to keep up with all those in line 30th March 2020
