Graduation Day
Conscientious housewives
Congregate in gyms
Perfecting bodies
That crumble into dust
What a shame.
Ambitious husbands
Acquire opulent homes and land
Believe they own it
Yet make no purchase in Heaven
What a shame.
Busy business owners
Turn days and sweat
Into dollars for their bank account
Yet have no riches in heaven.
What a shame.
Educated, well fed children
Know facts and figures
And how to play ball
But haven’t heard about the only thing that matters.
What a shame.
Reverent but lazy church-goers
Attend faithfully every Sunday
Listen to shallow interpretations they never question
Ignore the voice of God inside them
What a shame.
Blind pastors
Zealously
lead their
flock
Right off the cliff
Filled with self-righteousness
Instead of the Holy Spirit
What a shame.
Egotistical nations
Make war against each other
Not realizing the only battle
Lies within
What a shame.
What a shame we do not understand:
What you see
You can never truly posses.
What you think
Becomes you.
All struggle is against
yourself.
Nothing is real
But Truth.
And most of all:
Religion is kindergarten -
NOT your diploma.
