Ill Padre

Ill Padre

A Poem by Frieda P

Everybody knows,
 no one speaks
silence is golden and deadly
you won't live forever 

your amoebas' keep chomping at my brain
you've successfully stigmatized my prosperity
your silent sword
has yielded me mute 

You'll be gone and I'll live on 
coasting along simmering in this shadow
amidst your past
 unforgivable transgressions

Absolution will utterly never be granted

unless you find it in another dimension
if for some inescapable, 
irrational reasoning,
you repent 
 unspeakable truths,
should penance 
forgive your trespasses

IF they shall open the gates of paradise to you

I'd gladly burn in 

hell for eternity

An interesting blend of religion, truth and condemnation. Unfortunate, but somehow understandable that you would condemn the innocent to the fires of Hell in the afterlife too. I guess after being licked by flames for so long, you get used to the heat of the kitchen.
