Man: A poem 

Gullible innocents believe too much in deceit 

Punishment for crime has been no receipt 

The Age of Man could horribly repeat 

Honestly, truth faces resounding defeat 

Whose god is ours in untimely hours? 

Fiction takes fact like the sky takes stars 

The body of space is filled with this lace 

The theatre of earth washed in disgrace 

Your torso was taken to a forbidden place 

 The waters that defaced vulnerability’s face 

Can we admire fire without feeling tired? 

To what sunlight are we wired? 

The air is silent in the hands of the creator 

The brine made wine by Man’s wicked nature 

Does he realise he is the omnipresent traitor? 

Does he realise he is more ruthless than an alligator?

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