Religion
Cause of designated behavior to devote
to believe
and to worship
For a certain uncertain being
Full of so-called inhuman abilities
One may ask,
Is it a freedom to choose?
Or frankly speaking,
Is it an obligation to choose?
Religion
Full of so-called blessings
From a certain uncertain being
Designated to us, lowly creature
Then, I asked
Does it grant a sense of liberty?
Or barrier
Maybe, having a rope to hang on to?
Or a rope to be hanged on
Ah! A necklace of symbolism?
Or dog’s choker
Open your eyes and look at the news, sleepy heads.
People suffered in cells for their beliefs
Buildings got demolished for being a part of minorities
So-called sacred books got burnt for being sacred
Even to the extent where countries throw each other missiles
Really, religion gives their believers hope and tranquility
But say, what becomes of the others?
“Oh sweetie, you have chosen the wrong side, haven’t you?”
“And darling, shan’t you perish for our greater good?”
Lord, is this religion?
The so-called full of blessings
From a certain uncertain being
With inhuman abilities
For us,
Pathetic dogs who devote to a master
Choked with the word, religion
Oh, pitiful,
Pitiful little world
Full of diversity
If human won’t wake up and tolerate heterogeneity,
Shan’t by now, children would start to question,
“Oh mother, should we really choose sides?”
“And father, why do I feel threatened after praying?”
