Merger and Acquisition


Constantine the Great
at war with two-thirds of an Empire
chose to merge its fate
with a peaceful church
of Christ and won.  IHS.

Thereafter Roman tolerance
of each and every worshiped god
insisting only on a nod
toward the Genius of the Emperor
petrified in Church and State
(except for Julian, Apostate)
more than a thousand years.

If that were not enough
this chimerical construct
must have inspired the Prophet
(peace be his) to never
separate his ideal state
into temporal and spiritual.
How well that’s worked!

All down to Constantine
the Great, dream merger
Church with State
alloyed amalgamate
dual acquisitions
each by other.
