Sacrosanctimonious

Michael Marchese

By Michael Brandon MarchesePublished 4 years ago 1 min read

Heaven is no place to rest

Or acquiesce to ignorance

More sacred than thou's holiest

Oblivious omniscience

A bliss you think you understand

The powers of each son of man

Entitle him to own this land

As kingdoms under one command

Usurp the throne to which your bounds

Have left you chained to lesser crowns

Then take your highest mortal grounds

And put them down with dogma hounds

Look around and feel the earth

Absolve you of all sin and worth

Desire tombs devalued dirt

Has ever been your afterbirth

Just cut the cord and leave the den

The lone wolves pen this story's end

While counting sheep just play pretend

That lion's share the true godsend
