Cut The Head Off The Snake

Here on the life peninsula 

I find myself alone, 

I participate because 

I have no choice, 

I'm passing time 

treading water 

lamenting a strangers 

death at the altar, 

not really caring for 

the words I speak

religion’s for the

stupid and weak,

I don't believe in God

I keep being told I should,

he sacrificed nothing

for my sins, how come 

the bastards always win?

I’m an atheist, hand over fist,

what if he does exist? 

he's one sick fuck

leaving his creation

to run amok

never intervening 

when human life

turns to fodder 

what about the innocent lives 

sacrificed in his honour?

those who twist the words 

of the fictional bible 

are the biggest rival,

you can’t stop

the enemy within,

they’re already here

having broken our borders

poised like a snake ready to strike

we’ve got to cut its head off 

before it bites
