The World's Altars of ViolenceA Poem by Easter3The two Young Brothers thought to be primarily responsible for the Boston Marathon Bombings have been brought to Justice.The World’s Altar of Violence Oh, Bow to the World’s Altars of Violence Bow and Bleed Bow and Bleed Bow and Bleed Life’s Blood spilling and oozing Into thirsty Concrete, Stone and Earth Humankind, inDebtedly Chain and EnSlave YourSelves To the World’s Altars of Violence Fill your Babes’ Minds, Hearts, Bodies and Souls With Violence’s multitudinous Dis-eases The rotting and rotten Ravages of War The Pestilence of DeFormed and MalFormed Thoughts, Emotions, Flesh and Bone and Religions Of Hate, Avarice and Destruction Shoot your Fathers Gut your Mothers Blow up and Tear apart your Son and Daughters Burn and Blister your Brothers and Sisters In the Name of……. Oh, Bow to the World’s Altars of Violence Gobble up and spew forth all of Its putrefying Sacred Cows And while rooting about upon your Hands and Knees With pitiful cries and Martyrs Self-Sacrificial Pleas Look to the Light within You Try hard to find It And earnestly Pray for Its Ascension Pray for the Life-Giving Waters of Redemptive and Tender Mercies Pray for the Divine Milk of Human Kindness and Love Love to end all Senseless and seemingly sensible Brutalities Enough Energetic Cosmological Love To crack the Altars of Violence asunder And Rise from your aching and bloodied knees And downtrodden Hearts and Souls as Rolling Thunder To Stand firmly and assuredly Within the Loving, Nurturing and Sustaining EnVisionings Of Creating Heaven on Earth
