3064. JUSTIFICATION BY FAITH ALONE

JUSTIFICATION BY
FAITH ALONE
'Saul of Tarsus, be damned. Go ahead and storm.
Fuck you, delirious rabble-rouser. I kill where I
choose to kill. I am no master to no man but me.
From the skies we bomb and peril, little children
and all the infirm and lame, the aged and not
already dead will be. I am justified because I
believe in what I do. Dead end, rifle scope, run
away, antelope. Yes indeedy, don't be greedy.'
-
Parade grounds and tenters in the square;
playing taps for all to hear. Lightning
strike. I fall to the ground and think
of nothing, really nothing more at all.
-
Waiting for Winter; and Summer
hasn't even yet come.
