Wrath

The roar of institution's wrath
torments justice without mercy.

The wrath of civic religion 
spreads darkness, Christ's grace opposed.

God’s wrath - Creator’s breath withheld - 
terrors of emptiness,  life becomes void.

Yet over darkness, welter and waste
God's grace hovers, speaks “Let there be light”.
