Tell me -
how can I reconcile myself to the fact
that the story of millions of children like me
who are being sexually abused by the minute
my own experience
and my coming to you to listen, not understand
'cause you can't comprehend the terror, the helplessness
the evil that exists - in your pristine state -
you who have spent your whole life wrapped in a comfort bubble
of delusion,
feeding off whims and fancies, and where religion is defined
as must-know-more-than-the-others, a kind of lingua that puts you
in a cult, self-placed on a pedestal of pompous righteousness from where you deem fit to preach.
Yes -
how can i reconcile myself to the fact that the tears and animal-like terror cries from the deep throats of children
you pacify with the complacent 'I'll pray for you.'
