Father God, Yahweh, Divine, Good And Fair. Poem by RIC BASTASA

Father God, Yahweh, Divine, Good And Fair.

Rating: 5.0


at the end
i know what is
this all about

Art, pleasing
for a while, giving
flowers as reasons
to live,
soon you must leave
me with
wilting memories,

Politics, again
only for a while,
you, too must go,
for your own selfish
interests and
motives,

Philosophy, and reason
and justifications,
good, i can grope
for more explanations
and find more
reason for living,

Friends, ice coating
of my cake, flames for
a while, pudding,
wind and merry making
a little talk here and
there, miseries spread
too little on the
sandwich and the the
burger,

Family, oh, soon
they will have lives
of their own,
and finally you find
yourself again
alone,

Wife, soon you'll
die, destined for me
but again only for
a while, a mind of her
own, a direction she
can take, not much
to attach, spaces
here and there,
nothing really lasts
forever,

but there is one here
who does not leave me,
conscience, my own peace,
myself beside you,
Most friendly, Father
God, Yahweh, Divine,
Good and Fair.
