Driven

For The Lighthouse Poetry Contest

Driven

from a state of prosperity
         to one of calamity

family gone
         wealth gone
                   health gone

from the light of existence
         to the darkness of non-existence

driven from human life
         hurry the funeral
                   the living want him gone

but Adonai is stronger through people - than Satan.


“He is driven from light into darkness, and chased from the inhabited world." (Job 18:18 NASB)
