“god: A Contract Killer? “ Poem by Meshack Dasco

God: a contract killer?
Die! Die! the chanting rose -
Alas! if the die, die, is carried out -
How empty and stoic the globe would be?
I see -rather- a God who is a constant lover!

God: a contract killer?
Perish! Perish! the uproar echoes-
Lo! the immortal needs the mortals for pleasure-
So! He decides - when to kill and when to save-
I feel -rather- a God who is a contract healer!

God: a contract killer?
Burn! Burn! the schandefreude thunders-
Behold! a hair - man cannot save from fall off-
Yet, the call for a contract killer blazes like a fire-
I hear -rather- a God who is an everlasting savior!
