Do they still burn you for the blasphemy of accepting the comfort of ignorance
Giving in to the desire to fulfill and satisfy the tangibility of existence
Living exclusively for a now and not a next
Devouring the full weight of experience as though a souls sole sustenance in the desert
Is a God that would punish a doomed being’s selfishness worth worship
Comparatively
Sightless, soundless, speechless
We the very definition of transience presented with Eden
Expected to serve eternal for the privilege
From what place of fear is this notion of creation born
What perverse irony pressures so unending a search for the machinations behind miracles
We quest for Heaven only to dismantle it molecule by molecule
Pursuing blindly yet wholly dismissive of the singular instance which defies yet defines science
The new priesthood one of nonbelievers happy to simply be without explanation
Cathedrals built to self importance dwarf those built to the vengeful god and gods of old
Is that what happens when salvation is “his “ and “his” alone to grant
When our instant of awareness in forever is spent subservient to the potential of a potentially absentee parent
Disbelief the only religious fervor left
