Acts of War Ii
Act Eight, Chapter One. Part Two
Part of a grander play.
Are you just an apathetic Deity?
To an intellectual ape,
Did you create me?
Or am I just cosmic hypocrisy.
Our stent on this earth is fleeting!
BUT! My little girl is at war
with saints
heavenly host…
locked in brittle battle.
My soul must be pure thought,
I must keep up the charade.
I must not deviate.
The days come and go, ticks in infinity.
Her room is cold, my mind-numbed
By eternal ice it radiates…
I stand outside.
I stand alone.
The mansion as a buzz
with priests, pastors, media
in their raven black frocks
with white shocks
in their shadowy priestly collars.
Wages of sin and Redemption
at war for the humanity
For a little innocent soul,
not a war of guns
but of wills and damnation.
In the wrath of righteous extermination...
II of III
