Religious Chains

We stand of graph paper
ripped edges
break lines
confine
divide
Our separation implanted
colonial thieves
stereotyped miscalculations

I look at you and see
the option

practical is not
prejudice reaction

practical is not nuclear weapons
Got to think ahead
children not fed
medicine infected with
the illness of greed

shot from tanks

we are
woman and children
muslims and hindus
jews and christians
buddhists

standing on graph paper
confined
by religious distractions
boxes
drop money in…

priests profit…

from our sins

separation implanted
by colonial thieves

breaking stories

ten thousand years
before religious text & careers
we were practicing
not paying rent
simply to live

not building bombs
that deprive children
of pure thoughts
and the divinity within us

Death ordered
at the counter
of McDonalds
sacred is…
someone’s next meal

manipulated
mutilated
broken down
and made to believe
that somehow
by killing you
i’ll be free

cows ooooouuuing and moooing
but the words we use are hollow

militaries impermanent
lives lost

physical

All of us

bigger than this….

::EVERLUTIONARY::
