Religion ...
the great distraction
Redemption ...
a grand surmise
Belief
in something outward bound
His essence
— deep inside

This may be taken different ways Kurt but I take it to mean God and redemption lies within us. Well written my friend
Amen, thanks.
Most welcome Kurt
Great thought and so eloquently stated.
Many thanks again.
true understanding and redemption lie within oneself.
Blessings, thanks.
Kurt, this really struck me. Short, sharp, and stripped down to essentials. The poem feels like itβs peeling away layers of inherited thought until only the inner self remains standing there in silence. Powerful little piece, my friend. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬
