Fragment 2019
/I’m not a religious man. Not even a little.
The Bible of Christian love teaches
Hatred and violence,
The very thought of walking into
A church and facing all those sharp-dressed
Hypocrites makes
My stomach do somersaults
And prayers from the heart often
Go unanswered.
Strangely enough,
What prayer waits on my tongue?
It won’t be a prayer
Wasted on an absentee
Deity. It will, instead,
Be an appeal to fellow
Human beings and here’s how I’ll release it:
Judge me not
For my looks,
But for my deeds.
The colour I have
Is no crime.
