poem. In fact, when I read it, I thought you were mimicking

resident poessayist. As some of us say in the U.S., have a
nut.
Personally, I think you could make better use of your talent

Hi Deb
It was bad timing I guess, that someone should post a god
poem so soon after I joined. As long as poem themes/content
dont contain god messages that I find offensive, this is
unlikely to happen again. My point here is that often
silence is assumed to be consent. If all of my fellow
aetheists spoke up everytime they were offended by god
messages the world would be a better place and the gullible
taken in by the church might wake up, or grow up and give up
their big daddy in the sky. In fact, had I the funds, I
would flood the media with 'wake up to reality' messages in
opposition to all the god recruiting that goes on in the
media.
I have no idea who the 'poessayist' is, or what a
'poessayist' is? As for mimicking, I wish I had the talent!
As some of us say in the down under, what does 'have a nut'
mean??
Something warm and fuzzy to make up for it...

half a possum
where is your other half?
over there on the railroad track
soft

your body drips

off the road
as you move me

didn't you see the train?
or did you stand
frozen watching
as it approached
in a roar of thunder and light
