Wandering from Faith
How do I confess
that recently I sat in church
below a rainbow flag and hoped
that somehow God would now make sense?
I’m always journeying from faith,
am never quite there because
the dread hand of Creation looms
and testifies to me
that no Creator ever was,
it’s all just wind and rain, chaos.
But until I die there’ll be
a place in my heart for an English church
with that uniquely English air,
of understated sprays of dried flowers,
a calming light at old windows,
a stained pieta of the Lord
presented...

A Perfect Lore
Look into the quiet place
and ask it what you are.
I am of course an atheist.
When I look at creation I see
the great and ready-made chaos,
proliferating always like
the strain of some disease.
I cannot see in anything
the hand of some kind scientist,
observing us as Harlow did
his lovelorn simians.
But in this chaos there’s
a fire clean and pure,
a reason still to learn what’s here
and make at last a perfect lore.
and ask it what you are.
I am of course an atheist.

the end of tomorrow
The End of Tomorrow
When you sit alone in your room, enjoying your solitude and someone tells you, this is the time of your life, the trivial will say you can sleep til ten, in the morning if you want to and you think, why not forever
You know there is no afterlife, you knew that when nine years old Santa Claus, was the woman next door
in drag, handing out gifts, paid for by your mother.
When the doorbell chimes and a christian sadist makes it clear you must believe in Jesus because you are old and can die, any moment now.
When you listen to the soft breaths of...

fifteen seconds at the speed of light from here
there is a deserted rock, empty and abandoned
which has roamed the universe for eternity.
planet nothing is the name of this crystal stone
but everyone just calls it home bitter home
everyone pretends not to squander the little one.
all the inhabitants are proud enough to forget
that are just the beings on the smooth surface
of a tiny grain of sand in the ocean of stars.
the universe follows its course towards the navel
in an eternal self-referential dream so atheistic ...

fidelity
fidelity
The soil in the field where the vines are planted is rusty red
the mould in my hand is moist, and I feel the living pulsing wow
that will never turn stale but keep producing pleasure and
to make happiness.
To be a part of nature, unlike the religious people who think
they are in charge of fauna and fauna, and nature should bend
to their demands, a detrimental to our goodness
There are times when in a dreamy mood and wish I could see.
A higher power deity to come down and sort the mess we are
today, we are...

What Bigots Fear
Of demographics and inculcation
Surplus diatribes have been composed
Leading to further alienation
By means of humanity juxtaposed;
One group here against another group there
And all arrayed for you to hate them more
When labelled, categorically unfair,
To justify false outrage keeping score!
And thus the minorities keep shrinking
So the bullies won't have to work as much
At that out of the box social thinking
That runs them the risk of staying in touch
With that which the misanthrope hates the most:
No hell for...

Untrue Colors
So how do I tell you
When the healing becomes the affliction
You’re lost for the trauma you resign truth to
God forbid we ponder the end of all things
When hell is a reality weaponized against imagination
Filter it all and reinterpret
As you peer through the lens
Succumbing to the logic of denial
Legalism burn outs, scorched by the threat of fire and brimstone
Your own heart is jaded for sins like anchors of indulgence
You cast stones at your reflection
Blaming God for self inflicted bruises
I am you, trying to...

Consciousness
say what they say
conscience does not weigh
consciousness is a state
comatose and translucent
who does not suffer any
effect on the part of
gravitational pull
conscience is synonymous
to forgetfulness...
consciousness is absence
of a scapegoat
consciousness is a moment
of millimeters in opening
of the blinds
it's the face in the dark
the shadow behind the curtain
the unknown look
in the rays of light that tear
the trellises, the silk and the
usefulness
metaphysical...

the parting
The partition
Here in this landscape of bushes and crippled trees
the grotesque peace of daylight ghosts
Grey boughs stretching upward appeal to
a soundless god.
“Give us today a new life.” There is only one deity
the almighty one goes under the name of Silvanus.
Those who do not understand this are doomed to
a life of empty pursuit of pleasures.
Nightclubs and casinos, people trying
not to be alone in the night and face the truth

Contagious
chaos, unpredictable
running helter-skelter
burning down homes
flinging stones
scripted
but no King David
crazy, deranged
addiction, intoxication
madmen insane
everything woke
Prozac made in China
logjams, bridges block
one-way streets
with speed bumps
and no red lights
gothic barbarous appetite
shadows on the wall
fools miming
echoing bled
beseeching until dead
transgendered heroes
muted voices

Afterlife
Pious alchemists, implanted nanoprobes, into a dying man's mind
To behold a rapturous ascent, to an Afterlife, intelligently designed
And so they observed his final journey, through death's, open door
Transmitting, via a live stream; on screens, we saw, what they saw
>>>Memory erased Downloading new data<<<
