Corporate worship

Shake the sandals from your feet
and flee the darkness;
leave behind the traces
of all those faces
soaking up the rays;
those who think
the light is there
to make them more appealing;
those who cannot see beyond
the colors of their skin;
those who believe they're on this cruise
solely to enhance the surface.

It's time to jump ship, my friend:
Dive into deeper waters
and learn to breathe the light.
