Poetic salvation






I know Poe
Life’s love lost in Tarot
Faith’s fate traded away
Like bubble gum cards
But without super stars
Or God or jest
Symbols need systems to exist
I need a new religion
Not Christian or Jew
Buddhist or Muslim
One without flying saucers
Or desert temples
One that praises
Enlightenment
Over entanglement
Purpose over pain,
One that says
There are reasons
For everything
Even if I can’t
Figure out
What they are
