#excerpt

And even though your church is grieved
And papal excommunication will embrace and destroy us,
The analysis is as fierce as a pointed spear
And the truth as cruel as a naked sword.
.
Cults, religions, bibles, dogmas, hauntings,
They are like the vain ash that buried Pompeii.
Let's exhume faith from this pile of rubble,
Let us unclutter God from that flood of sand.

This is a little #excerpt of a #translation I was asked to do of a long #satiric #poem (a #book) originally written in #1885... And for now this is all I'm allowed to say.
