Holier than the Creator
Adam didn't come alone
Satan came down with him.
Adam bore children, Satan did too.
Adam’s children built with sweat,
Raised homes from dust and prayer.
Satan’s children built with fire,
Raised empires from despair.
One sowed wheat in barren soil,
The other sowed doubt in hearts.
They both work hard.
They both dream big.
They both shape the world.
God gave faith as a compass,
Satan forged it into a weapon.
God gave land as a passage,
Satan presented it as a prize.
The robe, the cross, the crescent moon,
can't clothe the soul
when truth is torn from inside.
like dressing a wound with symbols,
while the bleeding comes from belief.
Some questions are not doors
but painted walls
meant to look like passage,
but built to trap the mind.
No ideology can save wanderers
who consider
land to be holier
than their Creator.
