~ To all the Ignorant Selfish Fools ~

~~~

The sun will shine forever
in spite of your ignorant ways
Thank god that god is really love
and not the idols that you praise

Your egos are so overblown
your mindless thoughts are not your own
your spirit’s lifeless like a stone
your dreadful stench could use cologne

Yes, you know just who you are
deceiving swindlers so blizzard
you blind yourselves with hateful tar
and spread you loathing near and far

You are the filth beneath our feet
the scum all humanity
preaching lies
from blinded eyes
with pathetic selfish vanity

How sad your lives must be
that you need such foolish crutches
living in an empty world
that ardor never touches

You’re ugly choices haunt you
you’re ignorance will taunt you
and in the end
you’ll have no friend
for no loving soul will want you

Yes, we know just who you are
the spotlight’s on you like a star
the bitter souls
who act like fools
and wear it like a scar

AMEN to that.

No need to get offensive. I do not write anti-christian poetry. I am
Pagan and proud of it.

Abra that is so good!

I’m not a Christian either, so I have no clue what you read into the
poem that wasn’t there.

Perhaps you need to think more broadly in terms of what an 'idol' can
be?

The poem is really aimed at hypocrites who preach one thing yet behave
entirely differently. It’s not really suggestive of any particular
religious beliefs.

The poem was sparked by the fact that a really wonderful honest
intelligent loving person has recently left the forums because of the
presence of selfish egotistical hypocrites.

Religious affiliation is really not important. Anyone can make an
‘idol’ out of any deity. Christianity is no exception. Hypocrisy is the
only real criteria for ‘idol’ worship. Many people claim to be
worshiping a ‘god’ when in reality they are worshiping their own egos.

It’s a totally non-religious poem actually. It’s about egotistical
hypocrites. Not about people of sincere faith.

Spoo! Sorry.

who left?!

Me no tell Alex.

Artgurl...for one...

Abra...you have quite the talent young man...

Geesh, glad it wasn't me who made him mad.

Thank you Creativesoul, especially for the 'young' comment. (ha ha)

Ahhh, James...if I may call you that...you are young at heart...indeed.

I just reread the poem and realized that the word ‘blizzard’ was
supposed to be the word ‘bizarre’!

I hate typos in poems! Especially when they can’t be edited out.

Good words Abra....

boy ya turn a guy down once and he writes a poem about ya..

Jax, you’re just too silly for your own good sometimes. (ha ha)

tell me about it..

Abra

very good one indeed

Nicely done, and interesting....
