BLOOD LINE:The Sins of the Father
BOODLINE :Sins of the Father
What sins of the father
Have been visited upon this son
What crime
Transgression
Gone unpaid
What God seeks expiation
In this bloodline
A balance
Violated in Time
Unholy lies we live by
Mythical theology
Jeter de la poudre aux yeux
“Through dust in their eyes”
They say
Blind them to their mystery
To their knees in fear
Lord, save us from all anxiety
Until the end of our days
Amen
Still
The blood of others runs
Through these veins
Each generation to pay
In crucifixion
Of one kind or another
Neurons. Atoms. Molecules
The Material Soul
