Divine waste

After the purging came the rain

God's sweat and excretions baptize babes and rapists

with vomit and urine of redemption

Expulsion of all that nourishes and the profane 

void from bilious bellies of gluttonous clouds

Gomorrah's fires quenched in Noah's deluge

The poet's words fall as tear drops

On hard ground they form mud spots

blood of the word, salvation's sacrament is taken

making all drunken on the waste of the gods

Perhaps Nietzsche was right that god is dead. I thought he meant that it was the idea of god as understood by the judaeo / christian morality and that humans' evolution in the areas of science, cultural and varying schools of philosophical expansion had rendered a deity obsolete. However, I think god left the building like elvis long ago when people's hearts turned to stone and morals became currency to be sold to the highest bidder.
As we goosestep into the abyss I may have my answer yet. Somber piece of writing that is telling of the uncertainty we are facing.

Is this the promised purging fire, the arrival of the anti Alpha, the profane prophet, the Dragon of destruction? we were told - Beware they come in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. - nice scary writing - gives a needed chill - carl

Thanks Carl I've been called worse. Appreciate the review and words of support

I meant those you are describing not the author - I think the wolves are present and they are ravaging the flock.

A dark prophecy ...overstated? Given current outrage, I think not. History repeating itself, Jack boots, Goose-step, the Orange Reich. ... This one pulled me in and won't let me go. A skillful write, Soren.

From ancient times to today poets and prophets predicted the end of times and apocalyptic occurrences why not throw in one more? Dark always precedes the light Thank you so much for your review and comment
