Permissive ... Satire
1 Corinthians 8:9
9 But be careful that this liberty of yours does not
become a hindrance to the weak.
Satire
Here I am again myself in the background.
It is observing “I” in embracing its own confusion.
Where has it been today playing all around?
Singing: “My, oh my”, in search for a new infusion
Liberty at risk so I keep it locked up.
It should be feeling safe in its own demise.
Like a near miss I keep it blocked up
for I am too brave to wait for a surprise.
Streamlining life into my own perspective
Dressing up the artificial to be spotted from afar
Attracting all strife by my own permissive
to be detrimental like spirituality in a bar.
Jan Wienen
