Gaping wound in the sky <br />As the angels cried <br />and God apologised <br />for his lousy performance <br />the city drowned <br />over floating cesspools <br />drains and sewers <br />the street floating <br />a sea of dirt and filth <br /> <br />Seeking refuge in a bar <br />Idle, empty, drunk talk of politics <br />People listening to and arguing <br />over shared opinions <br />“...God is dead” <br />someone stated loudly <br />“People <br />killing <br />stealing, <br />cheating <br />and lying <br />- shouldn’t.” <br />I smiled and said nothing. <br />Ive learned my lesson <br /> <br />It’s OK <br />I don’t mind. <br />…<br /><br />Carsten Thomsen<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/as-the-angels-cried/
