Moral Absentia


The missing link of their humanity
got replaced by Neolithic bonds,
uncivilized howls of cruelty
Crucifixion affliction in iron lung demand;
release the wolf, kill the Lamb
Many Stone Age hearts
numbed by the touch of their Ice Age hand

Shrill vocal vote count,
Pliocene election in rudimentary action
Selection process yield feral satisfaction,
innocent blood amount

Such hollow compassion,
an enamel mirage
Arctic fox visage
smiles in frozen fashion

Spiritual dementia!
Void choice cast with null gravity,
causes grey matter to serpentine tongue wither
from Paradise entropy

Moral absentia,
such a soulless endeavor, verily
Golgotha roll call was a Leviathan ballot slither:
Double helix cross of savagery

The most ungodly deed
recorded in history — 
Ancient voices on an apocalyptic trajectory
The stench of Praetorium sin, 
echoed by those 
who primordial breathe

Mr. Robinson... I hope you are not mad at me... The only way out of the labyrinth of suffering is to forgive.
