'Nothing about religion is simple' Frank Herbert wrote. Just as religious faith touches every aspect of life, so politics can intrude... this is as lovely and true an expression of their stormy romance as I have ever read. Well done!! Fergus

No matter where these two go to bed, they always seem to be sleeping together.

Politics is a deep subject as is religion. We need good government, politics well...I tend to think that too much emphasis is placed on the politicians and not the issues that need to be addressed by the politicians. In a sense of the manner politics and religion are similar and your write has much truth in it...enjoyed this deep look at two touchy subjects, when either is mentioned you are bound to get many opinions, arguments, and ideas.

Powerful truths of light from above for me in this spiritual message poet.
"Two hearts
Hearts of love
In love with each other
Wishing to live in love
Yet unable to stay in love
They are as inseparable
As they are unmixable "

Thank you for enlightment in your creative words.

Blessings,
Joselyn

The human capacity for intelligence is certainly capable of establishing and maintaining cooperation by way of mutual respect between "Politics and Religion" without "one overpowering the other." From some perspectives it might seem unlikely but it's actually not unheard of in the world. Greatly enjoyed reading this.

(((Abdi-Noor))),

Strange bedfellows, politics and religion: the two will never get along, sad to say. Familial conflicts expressed in engaging poetry, well done!

(((HUGS))) and love, and many prayers, Karla.

In the shadow of the other's light
One must hide until his time comes

that is an excellent description of the relationship between the two!

A most interesting perspective, Abdi-Noor.
