Zombie

A zombie king
In a zombie land
An unconscious fear
Of reality colliding with
Belief too frightening for
Resolution and easier to
Ignore except when our
Unconscious rakes up
The zombie cult on
TV movies and in
Our everyday
Lives while
Most of
World
Opinion
Politely ignores
What happens to
Our national psyche
Living a zombie illusion
Allowing it to warp reality.
I say my prayers to God
Every night before I go
To sleep and day by
Day try to follow
The divine
Message of
Love thy neighbor
And to forgive taught
By the radical rabbi Jesus
A carpenter from Nazareth
A short swarthy man
Bronzed by the sun
Dark hair and
Eyes who in
Old age in
His 30s
Left
His family
To preach a
Way for common
People to live happily
A concept unknown to
The rich and the powerful.
But, what do I know and
If you are happy then
The Divine message
Has worked and
God’s in his
Heaven
All’s
Right
With the
World.
