If it is not treachery, it is torture…: A poem 

If it is not treachery, it is torture 

I copped it in the past; can I cop it in the future? 

Will the fabric of steadfastness eventually rupture 

in the relentless tide of a ruthless culture? 

I am not strong, but I have strength in duty 

Sheer will is a way forward for infinite beauty 

In the haze of cruelty, I have the gift of acuity 

Is it from inside my hide, or from a dimension wide? 

Who shows me the way all through night and day? 

I can pinpoint not the source, but gratefully say 

This invisible guide, to whom, on my knees, I lay 

that in your benevolence, I will never decay   

 And I walk, and I talk, and I always rock! 

Though I am not sexy, I have balls in my jocks 

Treachery is the weapon of a spineless man 

Torture is the weapon of a tyrant, just because he can

Hi, I am Monte Cyril Rodrigues and live in Melbourne, Australia. I am a retired journalist. I have been diagnosed with schizophrenia. I've had voices and visions all my life. I think it is a spiritual experience, my doctors think otherwise. I am a deeply spiritual person and keep having experiences with otherworldly realms.
