The Convenient Spirituality of our times....

For those of us who are struggling with the times, especially in matters of the faith... wrote this a while back but found it so relevant these past few days...

#Poem20 from the second book of poems I'm working on -

#20 The Convenient Spirituality of our times....

The convenient spirituality of our times

Doth befit us well

It seeks to advocate,

Enlighten, engage

Debate

The issues that

Plague and edge;

Some, behind doors closed

Some in white screen rituals

The sum total of

Partialities, inclinations

Discriminations.

Seeking endowments to those then

That do abide

Conform, obey;

For those that seek,

Questions demand

Enlighten and clarity doth pursue,

A heretic be damned;

And so it goes

This quest then,

For redemption, forgiveness

Enrolment, devotion blind.

Hear then this

The convenient spirituality

Of our times

Engaged in the

Non, the absent

Soul benign.
