Shattering Silence

shattered do you see?
by these wanton words, "worship is weakness"
believers bypass the beltway to bless
futile fallacy
fortified by its uniqueness
truth can transform the trails we transgress
 
the best shot
at recalling recanted guilt and grief
pivotal point for secrecy's shroud
speedy offramp
from that freeway called protest
to corridors which confirm the Christ
