WD 107 “Hound of Heaven”

A poem inspired by The Muse of Cold Earth.

Hound of Heaven

Raise the platform of performance 

I’m a dog, doing tricks

Slow to obey, quick to bark and bite the hand that frees me

Apostate, Ronin, for who can serve two masters, justice and the Lord

We played a dirge for you, but you did not mourn

But made sacrifices to, Ba’al, Ashtoreth and Joel Osteen

Your gold touched mind, damning the debts and the debtors 

To offer praise only to The Hierophant 

Love the law with heart, soul and mind

The dogs of Jerusalem, sleeping by Ahab’s open window
