Pointless

Away and away

across gulfs

into subtle shifts of reason.

Firm words

remove doubt.

 

Believers - believe

 

Further reaching,

seeking

into other times.

the teeth of men are 

gnashing,

eager to lay low

the idols they despise.

 

In the name of peace

 

Why do you cry out?

Who hears you speaking?

If you live in this world,

Do you live in the next?
