Clerical Errors
Clerical
men, lest God be offended
By a young
woman’s misplaced scarf, allowed
Her beating
to death. Repeatedly vowed
Righteous
destruction will not be blunted,
But visited
on the chosen people
Of the very
same God, who in their turn
Have striven
hard to dispossess and burn
Their
Abrahamic neighbours. They cripple
Their people’s
thinking with holy fallacies,
Flags and
lines drawn on maps. While, without qualms,
Nominal
Christendom supplies the arms,
With
political consciences at ease.
By and for
benefit of humankind,
A very
different world must be divined.
D. A.
