New Religion
  New Religion
Have you heard of Jesus? She said.
Questioning. Conforming.
At my front door.
We must all respect religious laws.
Execute all sinners in our incorrect society.


Did you know Jesus died for us? She said.
Rubbing my eyes to awake this morning.
Pushing. Shoving.
New age virtues.
Bible in one hand. Gun in the other.


Kill the foetus murderers. She said.
We have our duty to protect.
Contraception's a sin.
Pay attention!
Children should not read comic books.


Repentance is your saviour. She said.
Controlled television is our pilgrimage.
No false idols should corrupt our young.
They should only listen to our voices.


You cannot hide from the Lord. She said.
The crucifix.
A fundamental weapon.
Sharpened at the end to stab immorality.
She was still talking when I slammed the door in her face.

Why on Earth am I under arrest?
Dragged from my bed wearing only a vest,
Forced by the arm then into a car,
To breathe the air of a public-bar.

An enquiry that requires my help,
A poke in the ribs...Yelp!
Thrown through a door into a roam,
With the fear of unexpected doom.

Jagging myself. Is this a dream?
Orwell's prophetic infamous theme.
Now wide awake, I dare not move,
Those Officers have a crime to prove.

Forced to sign a sheet of paper,
A serious charge is not a caper.
Evidence planted at home to find,
But my only crime was to speak my mind.

Coward
Where were you?
When that woman was attacked,
Her movements were tracked,
Her handbag ransacked.

Where were you?
When there was a hit and run,
By somebody's son,
A joyride for fun.

Where were you?
When the window was smashed,
The cars that had crashed,
The Asian who was bashed.

You ignored when they pleaded.
When beseeched and entreated.
When witnesses were needed.
You ran and retreated.
