The Rapture

This is a poem about "The Rapture", written by my dear friend Nadia Trousdale. She is a wonderful poet and writer, and I hope you'll join her blog and read into her work a bit more. Linkies are here: http://sporadicpanic.com/
Support the arts, people! Show her some love!
Oh, and P.S. we lived. Therefore, we're heathens. Awesome! Party time!


They say the Rapture
will come on a day
in May

while bikers pedal
to save the world
and the water
drips chemical;

while hatred sings
from car windows
and the politicians
aren't people;

while movie monsters
make too much
and entire towns
go without;

while carbon footprints
fill with blood
and the scientists
are mute;

while oil's taken
from other places
and lost again
at sea;

while people stroll
under falling petals
and toddlers laugh
at nothing.

They say the Rapture
will come on a day
in May --

nobody believes them.

Why would that
Thoughtform In The Sky
want anything to do
with us?

My band had a concert with the Salvation army band today. The concert lasted past 18:00, but the salvation army guys was still there when the concert was over. I guess they didn't get raptured. They even managed to evangelize a bit during the concert too.
