Black pearl Mohammad’s beads
Hang from my back door.
Christian Cross and Star of David too.
Buddha would be there
Sikhs and idol worshippers and more.
Apollo, Zeus, Bibles, Korans, Talmud’s
Maybe even Bhagavad-Gita
But how many Katusha sacrifices,
How many holy murders
In the name Abraham, Allah?
Of Jews or Jesus or Moloch for that matter?
Which leads to a profound prayer for my soul
Pray that murder in the name of gods be no more.
Pray that all the righteous are righteous.
Pray that all soul tales come true.
Pray doubt be replaced with sacraments of wisdom.
Pray the artifacts on my door
Become one saving grace,
that
peace on earth is not just the blessing
Before the collection plate.
