HEADDRESS



NO MATTER THE HEADDRESS

POINTED

COILED

KILLING IN THE NAME OF GOD

IS AN OXYMORON

THE GOD WHO CREATED MAN

WHO CONSIDERED THE BLOOD OF LIFE

SACRED TO HIM

RELIGION

AT ITS ROOT

MEANS TO HOLD FAST

WE ARE TASKED

TO HOLD FAST TO GOD’S DICTUM

THERE SHALL BE NO KILLING

ON MY HOLY MOUNTAIN

OF WHAT USE

ARE THE MAIMED

THE SCATTERED BODY PARTS

OF THOSE

UNFORTUNATE

TO BE IN THE WAY

SHALL THE WIND MOAN AT THEIR PASSING

BECAUSE NO MOANERS ARE LEFT

FOR ALL ARE BUSY FIGHTING

FOR REASONS UNCLEAR

BEWARE

BEWARE

THE TRUMPETS BLARE

IT’S NOT GOD’S HARMONIOUS VOICE

BUT THE DISCORDANT NOISE OF HATE

 CALLING US TO FORGET

THAT WE ARE PEARLS

OF GREAT PRICE

AND EACH ONE’S PRICE WAS THE SAME
