Day in the Life of Grass (a poem)

 

Grass facing blades
sharp scythes of time
settle in to nowhere
pharmaceutical advertisers mime

Rising to eternal life
for sheep God and Jesus always are
good shepherds through uncertainty
over a world beneath the stars

Compositions of creation willed to being
become faith in matters too transcendent
to be completed by Earthly residents
without calculations infinitely foreseeing

Those in power increase each hour
as the poor must slowly fade
at the day of judgment when riches sour
the saved find to election they were made.
