The Blindfolded Man

My view on current religion

Walking in a line

The blindfolded man

Followed his kind

To the edge of a cliff

and

falls

Wishing in pointless pursuit

That hope is there

And a place with

No worries and care

He 

Calls

Out to his high-flying

Brethern that climb

High in knowledge

That he calls a crime

They 

watch 

As the man takes 

His leap out into

The valley of faith

A dark, wet slough

He

drowns

Because he is not 

considered worthy by

The Powers That Be

And they watch him die

they 

sleep

The laughing fat man

With his eyes long

And his servants suffering

As they bang a gong

for

him

The hateful god-tyrant

With the vengeful prophet

Threatening cartoonist

With violent outlet

he 

burns

The so-called Father

With the over-sized ego

Punishes his loyal ones

And hits a new low

of 

love

The multi-armed freak

Who worships bovine

And causes his/her people

To slowly lose their mind

for

what?

This is the fate of

The blindfolded man

Led off a cliff

That wasn't in his plan

The

End

[Coyote Poetry]

Many blindfolded men. Led to the slaughter and don't know it is the end. Nice flow of thoughts led to the strong ending. I tell people. Don't be blindfolded. See what is coming. Good or bad. A very good poem. Open the door to a good discussion. Thank you for the excellent poetry.
