THEY

in poetry •  7 years ago 

THEY

they who would valiant be
hallowed by their name
worship in the dark and whisper
to the masters of heaven
counting out the sins
under a well coffered roof
they murder all that is holy
in the knave with the candlestick
they bludgeon the words of wisdom to a dusty pulp
and while a light of heaven on earth goes out
they sing of all that is bright and beautiful
