With God

 

God,

The world consumes itself,

With unforgiving hunger.

It burns,

Under the baneful flame

created by your son.

Where are you, my God?

 

God,

Truth is your name no longer.

Where are you, my God?

 

God,

I no longer see,

I no longer feel,

Where are you, my God?

 

God,

With you,

I am blind.

 

 - Alejandro Bonfil

Author's Notes/Comments: 

A poem I wrote for a choral piece I wrote two months ago. The piece is a 9-part SSSAATTBB acapella.
