poem of the day September 12 

The dark ages

started with 

eager ignorant 

self serving men

preaching 

all kinds of cruelty

Flaming fires

burning books

burning witches

burning hope

Pouring salt

into righteous wounds

throwing balls of fear

Inciting scared

hopeless mobs

to fuel their violence

Seems like 

history is

on the verge

repeating 

the sins

of darkness
