Servetus' Circulation Ceased

When
fagots
crackle
after being
placed oiled
and stacked;
acrid smoke of
black heresy choked 
Servetus as
Calvin's hand
demanded death 
and Servetus'
circulation
heated first
then ceased
as he twisted
into rethinking
divination and
trinity made
little use for
flames destined
to consume ideas
medically premature.
Logos generated each fiery tongue
Sememes shifts each new cry to scold
a God who then turned away rejected
Orthodoxy took heretic council
and the Geneva Convention
was to be eternally damned
Christianismi Restitutio!
Christianismi Restitutio!
Where French and Roman liegemen unite
under a banner blackened with boiling
blood and books as the Devil defined his role then defiled
tomes laughingly. A pure radical without
self condemnation but the age's ultimate
unitarian martyr doctored abstractions then burned to death
with his ankles shackled to his words

Thanks for posting this -- it doesn't get any less confronting no matter how many times I read it.

This is amazingly intense! I mean intense in the strongest sense of the word too. I really enjoyed this and afterwards, as I was absorbing and contemplating the words...I found the shape quite stimulating as well...
