About this poem

This poem tells how the Electronic media and other worldly forces with its “sweet enchantment” gradually “chokes” God’s image (enthusiasm”) in man. The theology of ‘original sin’ and ‘toleration’ of ‘tendency to sin’ as an ‘unavoidable human trait” is depicted following the Dictum of Jesus, “remove not the weeds, lest the seed may be lost”. (Mt.13: 24. A poem blending theology and psychology of the “Original sin” and how often in the contemporary world, an individual give in for the satanic forces (temptations). In man, the inclination to sin co-exists with an inclination seeking good (God), the success of the either force determines the destiny of man – success or failure, hell or heaven. A resonance to the “co-existence of the parable of weed and seed” is reflected in this poem). more »
