Destiny will never desert the righteous: A poem 

Did you think you deserve to be taken beyond Anubis 

into the highest chambers and be absolved by the 

verdict of Maat? Or better still, be whisked past  

the gathering of celestials and cherubs blowing 

mellifluous tunes on golden trumpets, and grace 

the highest abodes? I am certain, wickedness  

never condoled its hapless victims, so it should 

not be condoned. You think my heart should swell 

with benevolence at your begging whine, now that  

your own insolent evil threatens to snap your own spine! 

That when you had your privileges, you barked  

louder than you bit, or vice versa; it was lethal, 

but not fatal to me! You imagine that I should  

festoon your desperate skies with the incandescent  

star of mercy. Forgiveness is no faggot. Honour 

is no hypocrite. And dignity is not demonstrated  

by dysfunctioning the deus ex machina!  I can 

imagine that the lost, distant outpost of hope 

and belief, can still be the footmark of the foundation 

of the eternal fortress; where the capstone announces  

to the cornerstone, the name of the mythic hero 

No mine with the purest mineral can be undermined 

This treacherous pursuit of desertifying righteousness 

would never persuade destiny to desert it (the righteous)

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