POEM_: My Responsibility

My Responsibility

Yes,
he has spent
a lifetime studying
his religion.

Sure,
I respect him for that.

But, guess what… 
what he has studied
is his religion,
his understanding
of his life;
what he knows,
is his dogma,
his doctrine.

What makes you think
that by rejecting
my understanding
of my life
and following him,
or opposing him
blind-folded, I will
be doing anything
other than abdicating
my responsibility?
