Holy Wars

by Erin Elizabeth Kelly-Moen — Read all 1,670 poems by Erin Elizabeth Kelly-Moen

Thursday, September 15, 2005

Oxymoronic Teutonic knowledge,
Consequences of convictions when formed
By fiction condoned by a stance where Gods
Romance a race into Holy-War-dead,

Makes me shudder with dread. Philology
Contrives to seek wisdom’s whys without facts
Enacted by experience. Degrees
Of excellence in describing old, stacked

Particulars of vernacular rape -
Specifics of language unseen. The right
To appreciate a theory loosely based
On written words to girder our sight

Should not include ‘murder of Holy Wars’.
There are no racists - if love we explore.
