Second Coming

o pray do tell
what is that spell
you are under
that you would fell
your own brother
and of murder
applaud the knell
on passover

can you still claim
« in god we trust »
can you still preach
« love thy neighbour »
or do your faith
you now squander
on weaponry
and golden dust

o please tell me
how good could be
of coming back
a prophecy
borne of attack
that would hijack
humanity
in the blowback

the messiah
would be distraught
at how the cross
brought no payback
as you praise sin
behind his back
and contradict
all he has taught

please formulate
how such a fate
predicated
on so much hate
fabricated
through plotted death
bringing justice
to its last breath
could validate
any true faith
and vindicate
a nation’s wraith
