Who  or what can rise from Jesus’ grave
When holiness  has been destroyed or died
In what blessed water shall we bathe?
If there be a judgement,who is tried?

The rich got richer,what a cliche here!
The poor and humble infected  in their will
We are no better, they  have made it clear
They will accept no more and yearn to kill.

Who’s destroyed   they  care not as they push
Our so called culture nearer to the brink
Indeed they seem to feel an intense rush
To raise up fools who can’t use pen and ink.

Is it LSD or ecstasy?
Will they see  his wild duplicity

 

Oh,light bulb foreseen by our God
Save us all from darkness’ rod
You are our Saviour as foretold
In prophecy  by ancients  bold.
We will worship you at night
When sunken is the sun so bright.
We’ll watch TV and kindle fire
No more to play shall we aspire.
We’ll wear ourselves out watching screens,
As ,from a can, we eat  baked beans
We’ll send for pizzas with our phones
With which we never feel alone.
We might talk to our partner dear
Though to text is easier.
We see the  neon street lights gleam
Where once we saw the moon’s cold beams
And in bed we read our books
With a kindle or a nook
We put beneath out pillows fair
I phones which   we long to hear
Can one have too much new light?
From technology some take flight
For gone are seasons, and their fruit
As our computer we reboot.
New potatoes all year round
Avocados    once quite rare
Now are seem ‘most everywhere.
Melons,grapes and fresh green peas
As the birds sing,life’a breeze.
Oh light bulb,fluorescent tube
Electric candle, trapped by boob.
We thank you for extended days
Maybe we’ll find time for prayers.
God is great  in mystery
From his bosom  we should  flee.

Once the Soviet troops were welcome there
In Auschwitz   thousands.millions disappeared.
The Soviet Army came  in  winter’s  chill
Nazis were advised to speed their cull

It was not only  Jews    gassed daily  there
Gypsies,plotters  also disappeared.
Can Christian faith   permit such  genocide?
On this ground, the Holy Spirit died.

What God exists depends  upon our minds;
When we choose evil,   what God can we find?
The end of Christianity came here,
As Christ was killed again   in chamber bare

God is dead to us for we have sinned
Against the Holy Spirit whom we killed
