Blessing in Disguise

Upon this food we’re about to eat:
Commanded to love, drowning
Air rises to the surface.

A heavy machine blocks the Son
Before it pummels the Earth,
A scythe through a field of white.

You called on me — belief
As old as myth;
The sincere deception.

Why did you leave
To find meaning alone
In a burdened reverie?
