Judgment

Submerged in merciless tides
The world is seen in dead blue light
Echoing sibilant cries of man
Ashes of God
Soak and vanquish in trembling hands
Cleanse the flesh of human sin
That hides in the pores,
Feeds from within
Drains color from the eyes
And leaves the mind in catatonic meditation
Lying on the equator of conscious hemispheres
In throes of transient memory
There is nothing more to fear
Eternal judgment self-proclaimed
None are so high
None beyond pain
I'll cut you in.

    Powerful use of Spiritual Imagery
    I'm still a bit shell shocked from having grown up in the Catholic church
    but I've been looking to re-connect with my spirituality
    Good job!
    "Stunned by my own reflection, It's looking back, sees me too clearly and I swore I'd never go there again, Not unlike a friend that politely drags you down,down,down"

    When you see me on the street, yell out "FAVO!!!"

    I've been to alot of Pearl Jam shows;So fucking what.

    I'm an Irish Catholic bred girl, myself. I have since distanced myself from the church and I'm certainly not an advocate of Catholicism (or any organized religion for that matter) to this day. I do, however, use a lot of Christian imagery in my writing for whatever reason.

    Oh yeah. I definitly didn't want to suggest that spirituality and religion were the same.
    I found your thoughts to be spiritual in an open-ended way, not necesarily a secular way.
