pharmacy grade faith

belief
saints and sinners
not for beginners
unconditional devotion
a personal hell of an
undertaking

however
one well worth
blood stained hands
and rising above
yet to be sheared
frayed cotton sheep

false idols be damned
mono-
poly-
theism
i consider not what
brand you smoke
or delphinian cave
you dwell in

just be passionate about
something
for christ’s sake

the only commandment
to follow
is questioning
everything

make sure it is
a benevolent god
you kneel before

no vengeful vicars
allowed
through pearly gates

keep your he’s lower case
and i should stand no taller

pure goodness
the only drug
you’ll find
uplifting

know in the end
karma credit
is the
only
currency
accepted
upon this
mortal earth

mustard seeds
sewn with love
bloom forever
adorning cosmic
flower boxes

warm welcome aboard
ships sailing across
all of our
oceans of time

there is no brimstone
second coming
to fear

just
inevitable
peace be with you’s
and mutual
happily
ever
afters
