death to Protagoras

I will not
to be measured by man
ruled by 
those killers of well-spring

daughters turned doubters
wrung dry of belief
blighted aliens

     a Jubilee!
     a coup!

from measured madness 
a desert flood
     by tears 
     for a God sorely missed
robes torn, heads dusted
thorns pressed crown to brow
wonder working power

we will to bleed for this:
to live again
     wet in rain
     wet in life
     wet in blood
in belief's full heart
we will to will less
to be measured
yes, ruled
by God and not men
