Salvation: A poem 

The cocksure religions would have you believe 

That the truth is in what they perceive 

Where crosses and swords did relive 

The callous subjugation of truth without reprieve 

And those that deigned to follow the incorrigible deceit 

Have their souls unmitigated by falsehoods receipt 

For good is not begotten by practices of indulgence 

And God is not beckoned by ritualistic sacraments 

Truth is in the honour of dancing to propriety’s song 

In repentance and paying by deeds when one has wronged 

Salvation is not forthcoming from one saviour’s acts or words 

It is in your own moral pathway that your soul will truly be heard

I think it is a spiritual experience, my doctors think otherwise. I am a deeply spiritual person and keep having experiences with otherworldly realms.
