The False Rapture

We’ve redefined God

Into someone

Who fits

His image

Our vision

His vision

Inconvenient

Alongside things

That won’t let go

His message untimely

With bills to pay

And concrete goddesses

To which we pray

  “a tail never tried to wag

   a bigger dog”

As we chant inside the

False rapture

Of our own

Becoming

Hiding from the very

Light

That promises

 —to show us the way

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: February, 2016)
