Doesn’t Make Sense

© Jenn Cleary

stained glass windows block my view
I want to know what’s happening outside
there is a musty smell of incense here
and it’s stinging my eyes
old men form a ritual parade
with young boys at their sides

I am a child and this doesn’t make sense to me
all these beliefs of what I cannot see
I don’t want to be a part of your lengthy creed
maybe it’s right for you but I just can’t follow your lead

high above a wooden figure
hangs up on the wall
kneel, heel, sit, stand and stay
are the commands we follow
repeating words that mean nothing to me
feels empty and hollow

I am a child….

monotonous music fills the hall
I am told that God is near
they say this is the way we must live
indoctrination through fear
guilt and shame is what I learn
to recover will take years

I am a child…
