Lies sprayed across
chalkboards like mind sanitizers
Conspiracies spoken in
scalding hymns
Illusions spread
like Seraph wings,
guiding the blind
to damnation
Time guilds instincts
green light that fleets
from consciousness
Deities murmur
karma, scribbling notes
of aimless desperation
across childish minds
Education for the masses
and communion to the world
Recycling minds under Chestnut trees
in hopes of revolutions and utopia
2+2=5

Very well done. I agree with the previous comment, and you brought the biblical and spiritual references in, in a way I thought quite clever considering the image you were working from.
Very nicely done. Thanks for entering. -
Loved the Biblical allusions to the heirchy of angels. "Seraphim". Yep, yep, yep.. This was really good.
