RELIGIONS CANE

RELIGIONS CANE

Can you afford,

to saunter ,

to the alter ,

and believe in everybodys lord ,

and look op to the witch hunter.

You see a young mother ,

take cover ,

innocent people ,

who adore their steeples ,aim in vain,

to protect one another ,

the reality is theres always some nutter ,

who will kill your brother .

A mad planet and its mad countries ,

religious maniacs ,

who write coffin inscripted plaques,

alongside their clockwork sentries .

A frown upon a nutter ,

who wants to put you down ,

in the dreaded red gutter ,

he grips a trigger ,

destruction drips ,

beneath an evil figure .

Do you really believe in a white beard ,

and that we’ll be retrieved ,

reprieved , by it ,

and cleared ,

from this insane,

domain ,

where upon which,

we have been reared .

Do all these different beliefs ,

form definate relief .

Can they really bar your head .

and annul it ,

from osama and his madmen ,

with their guns,

and their bullets ,

suicide bombers ,

preach their promise ,

behind a button then they push it ,

soldiers lie dead out on the province ,

as the public get all full of it .

A punctured body smashes through a river ,

a spirit kisses the shelled bed ,

friendly fire misses ,

on an aircraft carrier ,

we count the dead .

I just dont think we can all be saved,

or get appraised ,

why multiple belief to be maimed,

so much talk of promise lands ,

our daily bread ,

sporting the best brands ,

but ,

we all go dead .

I believe theres another plain ,

but does it have to be ruled ,

by a religious cane .
