a poem by Joshua Brown

And I looked out

Among the congregation

A soft thought cast

Into heartless cowards

A broken tree bent

By the noose filled

With the scapegoat of

Parental inaffection

Evil communicated by

The preponderance of Good tm

An illusion of justice

Committed by the congregation.

Thanks for reading "Mass." I wrote this poem during the service at Messiah Baptist Church in Denver, Colorado on December 4, 2022. Read my last poem: "Hotel Abortions" which is a reflection on the sexual deviancy commonplace in churches today. 

Comment below if you have ever attended a True Believer service. Maybe you still are a True Believer. If you are, let me know what is the most important part of your religious convictions! ❤️

Donate! I have a few expenses associated with the website operations and although it is very generous of the Pexels artists and Blogger devs to allow me to use their services for free, I would love to build some of my own infrastructure for resilience purposes.
