sharks in the water

you don't give
up on God, but you kind of throw
modern religion
over the side of the boat.
the gowns
and hats,
the pedophile priests
and ministers.
the prosperity preachers
with their
mega churches
and zombie eyed parishioners.
t.v. evangelists
promising
blessings for a thousand
dollar check.
all those shiny people
flying around
in private jets.
sharks in the water
with people now desperate.
you're sort of done
with all that.
