(The picture has nothing to do with this poem.  I definitely know what this was aimed at and I remember there being a big uproar.  Honestly, I expect the same to happen here as well.  I mean, this touches on religion.  That never goes well. For a little context, this was written right after getting into it with a very fanatical atheist, so there was a lot of anger embedded in the words. Especially since the person thought I was Christian and then accused me of lying about being Jewish because he was ‘winning the argument’.)

A demand of proof

To defend my path

As if it is my job

It is my faith

That works for me

Cobbled from my life

And always evolving

So why does it anger you?

I made no attempt

To convert your mind

To bend you to my side

Such acts are beyond my care

Yet you slice at my faith

With fanatical rage

A rage that rivals those you hate

You call them blind

Unable to see beyond their faith

Attempting to fill their church’s ranks

But are you any better?

You lash out like a scolded child

Screaming for proof

Refusing to give any in return

All you do is attack

Without any provocation

Hoping to convert me to your side

Believing I need saving

From the darkness of my faith

Accusing me of conversion

When all I said was ‘hi’

If this is how you act

Why would I even want you?
