light

I am the light
the might and wrath of what you call G-d
with a wink and a nod
fingers crossed and a mulligan on what you say
for fucks sake, how dare you call yourselves men of faith
you have none
in your brother, your neighbor, yourself, anyone or thing else
not the imagined netherworld deity
you think deserves more decency
than an Arab man with a deed to his land
the bum in Central park West
or the best and brightest poor resident of neighborhoods blighted
whose skin is not the lightest
and if kill is any part of what you're saying a creator said
you are not righteous
you're spiritually dead
