Poem Artwork

Follow me to the end of the earth..
Into the sea...
Walk in.. hand and hand..
This will be our final stand..
Have faith..
Follow me..
Take your last breath..
Let the water fill your soul..
Don't worry my little shepherds..
We have a much better place to go..
Follow me..
Into this fire..
Your body will burn..
But your spirit will be free..
Heavenly light is where we will all be..
Just follow me..
Follow me..
Put no other Gods before me...
Or you shall all be damned..
This I say..
The blood of Christ you must taste..
Follow me..
O n  b l i n d  f a i t h.
What is this faith we must have..
How do you get it?
Do you need to be blind
to get this gift from the great divine..
Perhaps we are undeserving...
It is our nature to ask why
If God didn't want questions..
Why give us a mind..
Deductive reasoning....
 was his gift..
If he wanted blind faith..
He should not have given us this..
Why not give us a sign..
A miracle for all to see?
Ahhh.. but what kind of faith would that be?
To many directions..
Religions
Rules
Spirituality
Souls
Reincarnation
Evangelist galore..
Just the beginning
so much more..
And we are to know on FAITH....
where to go?
And we are to know on faith..
In a world filled with pain..
We are to know on faith..
In a world where so many are left behind..
Deserted..
Hurting...
Alone
And  blind...
Never any answers..
Only answers mixed with lies..
But It still comes down to blind faith..
every   single   time.

I think that you were inspired by someone who is Divine, and not me, but thanks for the plug. I loved it.

your presentation and repetition of "blind" faith
works well in this piece
while you may not have meant it to
for me this results in a need to "grow"
in understanding so that "blind" faith doesn't
require all so much blindness

thanks,
donna.
