A Post State

Religion’s a man-made thing…like guns & guard rails.
A co-opting of reason that no one assails.

While there is room for both miracles & science;
Genuflecting for ether’s a sad alliance.

Tell the wind your hopes, while crying into the void?
Praying for rain while rivers & lakes you avoid?

Show up on Sunday to absolve Saturday night.
When one could just sleep in & make it all alright.

Be angry at reality & pester priests.
Me & the heathens will be harvesting feasts.

I see the world through a Painter’s eyes and process it with a Poet's Heart....it's quite a harsh place for the soul. It scratches and wears your true self down, at times, but the Beauty is Addictive. I feel for everyone I encounter. Everyone I encounter is a teacher if I'll let them be. I Empathize with everyone I talk to & I Think about Everything-LEVi
