an original poem by Joshua Brown
listen to the dramatic reading here
Windy nuclear expressions
Of artistic generation of economic reprieve
Farmers lost among the warriors
Gold generated by sieve
Human consternation willed
To master thus this species
Among the evolutionary rush made
To conscious virtues by bipedal mass
Can fight back we must?
Against the Gods made by star dust
In ethereal journey of dead rebirth
And here they come, the aliens.
Tromp, tromp, electrical steps
Decentralized baby made of sats
Whose growth to consume the very atoms
Built by the playground God eternal
Higher, higher into the everlasting
Could e'er Jesus, the most True Divine
Among the men, beyond time's failure,
A tentacled hand from shielded twisted pair
Resoutly grasp the earth with grip
More by value brought to mammal
In time, birthed, in space, reviled by humililty
And though the feed increased,
A way of escape, narrowing quick
Pressed against the grid
To destruct those prayers
Who const gave way to violence
"Surrender to Will"
And nought of the beloved disciples
Dreamy state of treasonous isolation
Bloomed against the little Christ killer
Make way for King with donkey!
Who comes once more
Not as lion, but lamb
Born into wiles.
No ambulance rushes to protect
Against the blood shed
By violent superstition
Abstracted into human farming
By Gods
They made
We bowed
To survive
And birth
The King.

Thanks for reading "Feeding a Man-Made God" which was written while riding the north-bound RTD Bus 153 in North Aurora, Colorado, United States, North America on April 26th, 2023. My last poem is also very good, it is titled "Cheating in Candyland." The title is a reference to a childhood memory I have of stacking the deck, multiple times, in front of my aunt, who wasn't paying actual attention during the game we were playing. The poem is overall a reflection on free will among people who deny their own responsibility.
