- Cored Faith -

 

 

 

 

 

 

Resentment dropped pained Regret, arbitrarily
in middle of Mind built from experiences
Seekers were forced to endure face to face.

Mushroom cloud released shrouded reason,
unhinged harmony replaced by hostile actions
to bend will, bruise with iron fist
when Spirit winced.

Marked residue on branded cattle to be claimed:
Sell their Souls
or Starve them of necessary incandescent Light.

Shoulder to shoulder, the oppressed stood afraid
during inspection while men in uniform undressed 
shredded Dignity with threats to annihilate their world;
eat every man, woman and child alive
from the inside out.

Cruelty hand picked human apples, cored Faith.
Let loose worms who intruded demands
while Minions spoke in speech, lisped Armageddon
as fact along twisted Fear behind backs.

Salvation shamed, parched mouths taped shut 
except for the few who fought without violence
to continue in Honor of those lives lost

so their exhausted efforts to spread Peace
would not be in vain.

    Beautiful and powerful write, Desire. I liked the part of minions and Armageddon. The way you worded the sentence it seemed to have an irony to it, like how people can't speak as well if they have a lisp. Anyway, thanks for sharing and best of luck in the contest.
