They invade my peaceful abode
With their cars and mini vans
An army of dedicated faithful
Ready to serve the master
With shrieks and shouts and howls
They disturb my sleep and thoughts
In the deep of the night and in the early morn
They do all these in vain
'Cos they try to reach a God who loves silence
Happy 2021! To a Safer and More Just World

this is good stuff.but wat is behind it all.sth fishy
ReplyDeleteNothing fishy, i assure you Carl, the poem was influenced by my observation of how some people organise their prayer sessions at odd hours, disturbing the much needed sleep of others. I concede that while spiritual growth and freedom of religion are very important, we must take steps not to inconvenient anybody in the process of our religious worship.
ReplyDeleteTell me, what do you think i'm hiding? What are your thoughts on this poem?

ReplyDelete@Carl, you wouldn't rule out the personal experience completely, would you? Thanks for your supporting comments though, and keep up the faith
