Who to, you fools?
Did you not read the words
of the terrorist, who cried
“God is great!”
before firing an AK-47
into a crowd?
You remind me,
with your thoughtful words
made thoughtless
by their uselessness
of Christ himself.
“Forgive them,
for they know not
what they do.”
You remind me
why I prefer Satan so:
he, at least,
does not forgive
ignorance.
God
made the world, you know.
How could anyone
forgive that?
Let us act,
rather than pray:
tell the truth
to shame the devil
(if the devil can be shamed
or were ever once untruthful.)
Change the truth
to shame God.
You take my breath away, and give it back again.
