Fundamentalism in Verse

Why Lord Over with Biblical Views?

 

Shrink the world to the size

of a child’s palm, and call it THE

TRUTH. These trains of thought

pluck the mind, the fruit of control.

"Our biblical view," these boys cries

tells us: theirs is all there is. Yet,

the true voice from a whirlwind says

otherwise. Reduce. Fundamentalism

 

rejects the Word for some safety

a kid can shake. Diminish the large

call it law, their crafty tools slither

by. Fear draws them to heed the call

as Gods. The glories of Father,

Son, and Holy Breath, beyond

their small hands, moves

through our nostrils giving life.
