Faith: The Dark Side (February 1, 2017)

People view you
As the guiding light
In the dark tunnel
Of life.

And yet
Use your name
In vain.

Justifying
Their actions 
Of hate.

However
Irrational
They may be.

In which
Ignorance
And dogmatic behaviour
Is praised
To the highest order.

As millions
Are slaughtered.

Without
A second thought
Or any display
Of remorse.

By those
Who are considered
Rational
By many people.

Author's note: Throughout history, there are cases, which rational people have placed their faith and lives, in the hand of unstable leaders, like Jim Jones, and Adolph Hitler. Could Donald Trump, be one of these leaders, as President of the United States, given his recent actions, against Muslims, from politically unstable countries, with a large majority of the population, from entry, into the United States.
