Rob Schackne #1042 - A Christmas Poem

A Christmas Poem


The miserableness
of religion, birth
a notional return, then
the oblivion of layers

various martyrdoms
of fire, arrows, tortures
& horrors even worse
as minds are torn apart

in a Christmas poem
going nowhere fast
I say my little prayer
of letting go at last


except for her smile
our laughter, our luck
& the love we promise
two hearts, more heart

other portions of joy
still very small to see
in some country towns
there are twelve churches
