There is nothing to gain

There is nothing to gain

From denial

Holding back

From moving forward

Freezing the clock

Pulling the plug.

I have nothing against

Believers in god

If they don’t profess

To be better than me

Or more deserving

Of priority access

At the end of times.

It is a system

With some fixed points

To promote

A semblance of order

In the masses.

Lay down your guns

Surrender to reason

There is nothing

To fuss about

In socialism

Or a godless society

Full of empathy

For goodness sake

If Jesus did exist

He would sit

Somewhere on the

Continuum

Between here and there

We all sit on it now.
