Jello mold converts…
frozen believers
Trapped in plain sight,
their freedom to lose
Set in the form,
immobile and suspect
Hope locked in stillness
—unable to move
(Dreamsleep: July, 2021)
Truth In Default
All the young Jews,
all the young Christians,
all the young Muslims,
debt to confuse
Abraham crying,
prophesy fading,
hellish debentures
—Heaven to lose
(The New Room: July, 2021)

Good write, Kurt.
Thanks Jerry
heaven lost on penalties.
🙂
kinda crazy
just how far the intentioned goodness
of faith based, belief
has been distorted - permanently:
by zealotry's pietism...
to think, in the old days
theology - merely as an ideology
performed a minor miracle
with all its 'hell fire fear mongering'
to unite, a callous humanity
from all the anarchy
and loathsome devaluation
of a life's worth;
and now
people's mistrust and hatred
of weaponised
divisive, organised religions
is delivering the herd majority
of society - back
to that nihilistic apathy: of life...
'cyclical', somehow doesn't do enough justice
to articulate
our capacity for self-destruction, anymore;
even those original chaos deities
probably think, we're the ones
a little too: crazy!
lol
Yes, Abraham is undoubtedly crying.
Thanks LB
Kurt
explains the rain floods in the peak of summer, brother
