these are
fixtures,
daily grinding superficial.
with little
resemblance to the
prophets we pray to.
desperate men with facile
tongues,
perfect answers
to petty, practiced
questions.
and they, being so many with
one discernible face,
one alterable religion,
liquid to the palms of
deathly thirsty children,
aim
where aim would do
the most
to damage
and we
fail
victim
with only ourselves
to blame.
