Religious Intoxication Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

Imbibing on religious dogma
Innocent young men (women)are silently brainwashed
Offering their humanity on the altar of religion
Religion becomes their campus
Pointing them in the direction of violence
Violence becomes their modus operandi
In blood, they celebrated their new found religion
Desecrating the ethos of humanity
Zealots totally immersed in their own abomination
Innocent blood staining their hands
Slowly suffocating their Souls
As they fell deep in the abyss of the unknown
