Guarding the Faith

He was asked to leave for the jungle

Because he made the city uneasy

He left as a nomad without asking a question

Because he did not fear the jungle

Just like never feared the city

He had never complaint of disdain

He had never looked for a praise

He had never commanded submission

He had never asked for forgiveness

He had never shown a frown to a smile

He had never missed a chance to cry

He never stopped them to trespass

He never requested for an access

He never had an urge to gain

He never had anything to loose..

Why should he live in the city

Without the fear to loose?

How could he be devout enough

Without a god to kneel for reprive?

So he left for the jungle

Where the fears had no meaning

Where there were no questions

Where the answers were pervasive

Where the gods had no face

Where the temples had no form

Now he has returned after ages

Back to the city of the fears

Now he is the god carved out of stone

There in the temple with the golden head

Guarded by the alarming guards

Redeeming the fears which he never feared.
