Best Atheism Poems

Atheism 

When I grew up 
I stopped believing in God
Toys belong to the young
And Santa fanatics 
Yet
I leave small light on
In my bedroom at night 
The fear of darkness 
Never left me 
Yet
I know Christianity had
Taken hold of me 
The darkness of the sinner
Never left...

Atheism is a kind of drowning
Gasping Hope, as gasping air
The breath I took was not of brine
But a breath of full Despair

A vessel, knowing no rust, nor wreck
Appears – from timeless Beyond
A Captain extends His hand – and shouts:
Come on! Come on!

Will you take the...

I used to believe in God, I did
As I was growing up
Being taught of heaven & love & peace
To respect the man above!!
But growing up I've realised, it's just a nasty scam
Believing in a world which takes the lives of innocent children, women & man!
They...

She left the tent in holy fervor,
Hell-bent to spread the Word.
The Spirit moved and made her quiver;
No act of faith was too absurd.

She knocked on doors, she spoke with zeal,
Her faith she shared in earnest.
There was no doubt God’s love is real:
His justice is the...

Earth has no special vantage point 
Even in the Milky Way village
We see as we would from Andromeda
Scientists do measurements, math
But none knows the when, why, who?
At the start, before Laws, before big bang

Now, if expanding universe, speeds up too
The when and why become clearer
After...

How does it feel to you
when presidents proclaim anthro-supremacy
exclusively made
in one universal God's
straight WesternWhite monotheistic 
over-Capitalized 
and stealth-marketed 
kleptocratic image?

How might this have felt
comfortable and uncomfortable
across centuries of Western
straight light-skinned male monastics
expecting historically salvific privilege?

How might this orthodox Tradition feel
to leftbrain verbally dominant scribes?
interpreters of...

Eyes wide in wonder I entered the chapel
a curious child 
through the back door of the church
candles twinkling in the dim light
streaming through the stained glass
like colored candy
like lollipops
statues of saints standing sentry in silence 
staring soullessly
I startled for a moment as I thought I...

She is anxious
Like the rushing wind
She bleeds worry
Because she fears within
She is insecure, an exposed doubt
Vulnerable to rejection, to the 
Unlocked shame, regret
So dark it has no name

She is afraid to listen
To the sunlight and the stars
As they dust her feelings
With gentling whispers, kisses
Like reflections...

Lola's fingers tremble 'round her beads,
    Her lips move, soundless prayers;
        While outside, weeds
        Push through cracked leads—
    Life finds a way, who cares?

I can't...

VIII.
Chris had done lots of studying in school,
and then logically came to understand
that there was no deity in this world,
there was just matter, life, and then humans.

And for several years this just simplified things,
he felt smart, and could see the world with reason,
even felt bad...
