Apologia Poem by Jacqui Thewless
Apologia
I gave up churches,
even the ones that recognised
silence as a river of sacred possibilities:
diving for pearls
-of-wisdom by priestly-permission, the faithful
servants were won with prizes, while I
still preferred poems
that open their shells by themselves
to fickle folk with searching
attitudes, who’re secretly fervent,
ravenous for truth – and
fed by fluke.
