I am sworn to Calvinist infralapsarianism; better watch out!: A poem 

Could I still be the hidden mines in the 

Straits of Hormuz, waiting to detonate 

at every approach of a ship! Or the zebra in  

your kitchen, turning your misbegotten culinary  

into a wild rampage of upturned pots and saucers! 

Or would I be Hamlet putting his sword to rest 

to feed on your cheesed crackers, forgetting his 

call of duty? Ask Macbeth, how much blood the 

old man had in him?  And if all the perfumes of  

Arabia could sweeten your noxious hands? And think  

how you cannot even tame a shrew; with all your cuckoo-crew! 

How you cannot salvage your eternity, when you are in a quagmire  

of soullessness, but be one among the raptors  

feeding on each other in the depths of the ocean! 

Would I be in a quandary when I am invoked to show 

patience and restraint, but still plot your hapless fate in destiny?  

Has anyone gotten away scot-free, in time, for causing 

harm to me, even though collateral damage and comeuppance 

take time. O time! Sweet nectar in my cup, that I sip all 

too gracefully and gradually; that my detractors think  

they have won their victories by sabotaging me and  

subverting the truth. I am avowed and sworn to an ultimation 

of Calvinist infralapsarianism. No temporary death or destruction 

of me will terminate that eventuality for the treacherous ones against me!

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.
