you have
long
been
dead
what god
there was in you
has perished
for
when you
tasted
innocent blood
you became
a soulless
dried weed
caught up
in the fetid winds
of earthly judgement
no god
would speak
to you
you
who prey
upon children
afraid to face
your foe
as a man
rather
you slither
upon the earth
at night
stealing girl children
from their beds
like a pimp
on a city street
you have entered
their lives
and
we pray
that god’s
judgement
will be swift
for you
the faithless
