Heed not the truths within these splendid lies Brought forth unto our very eyes, Pay no esteem to this fantastic dream Upon this pedestal supreme.
Disregard the garish bell as it rings Marvel not in the hope it brings, Empty echoes call as its clapper sways; Reverberating through this maze.
Never accuse the scripture as its read Of so misleading the misled; Confused and tempted, treading steps their own, Upon this dreaded path unknown.
Do not begrudge disasters as they wake, Although a life or two they take. Their intention is not of ill content As it is Mother Nature sent.
Blame not fervent fires of casting sin, As flames upon a rooftop grin. Hold not these hurricanes within a cage Nor flooding waters as they rage.

This is brilliant Wiz, incredible. The word choice, as always, is perfect and inspiring. I love the message, that you cannot place blame where it is not due. Beautifully written.

" Disregard the garish bell as it rings…
Marvel not in the hope it brings, '" . . .
i love this line, along with the eventual
conclusion it leads to, nice flow and
and style, splendid writting . . .
thank you also for your read and comment.

"Never accuse the scripture as its read
Of so misleading the misled;
Confused and tempted, treading steps their own,
Upon this dreaded path unknown."

I like the metaphors and this has such depth!
I think there is much ambiguity in the lines...much you are telling/not telling...nicely done! |
