the Sun just keeps on shining
setting and rising,

all throughout the Trans-Atlantic slave trade,

and that Allah had no problems with the Caliphates
and The One True God was all about The Crusades

and that Creator ignored the prayers and the pleas
of First Peoples slaughtered by steel,
starvation, and European disease

and that Yahweh was pre-occupied during the Holocaust
busy planning and inciting the Palestinians’ cruel loss

from Auschwitz to Al-Shifa,
He so craves burnt offerings
His global portfolio is built solely on dead things

He created the Sun to grow His tainted Seeds
Horror by daylight,
His Grand Design — a fucking death scheme

Auden once begged to “dismantle the Sun”
for the loss of a single be-loved one

but Hark!

to re-build and restart!
