....Might Heaven....And Hell...Be....Categorically....One Poem by James B. Earley

Has Christianity's fringe....seized control
.....Satan....sitting in Hell stirring the coals
Awaiting the rapture that's promised to come
....Might Heaven and Hell be categorically one

What else would explain..."Church" supporting a crook...
Working every criminal scheme in his little black book
...Despising people of color...that God-awful plight
Church folks acknowledging in principle...advantages of "white"

Something's ominously prophetic when there ain't no flack
....No Christian opposition....no royal pushing back
Pious....Evangelicals...critically seeming to say....
"Our hypocritical philosophy...'tis God's only way"
*
*
Literally....having no balls...acceding to every whim
.....The rest of Christianity simply deferring to them
Awaiting the rapture......that's promised to come
....Might Heaven and Hell...be....categorically....one
