Holy Orders


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.
