The place of healthy grass
I know the human soul departed
She's frantically running, but she doesn't believe
Sepulcher stacks await choice pieces of meat

I know this meat all too well
Regretfully, I confess
But I don't understand
Holding an oil-based lantern in this dark dark world
All the sheep have no Shepard
Seeking something from inside themselves
And never letting it in

Deception, she's very sweet and... cold
She opens your mind from behind
Her dull light twists its way
You are a god, aren't you?

Cast you silver glance here
God's mouth is wide open, shocked in his love
How could you make God's mouth out of clay?
My friend, you are an arrogant one
Winds and thick clouds of your choice prevail
But mere speech puts poverty on display
Will my lantern not see the rain of integrity?

Regretfully, I confess
But I don't understand
Holding an oil-based lantern in this dark dark world
All the sheep have no Shepard
What do want from the inside of themselves...
Never letting it in

When the music stops and the pretty stones speak your name
6,6,9,2,8 death doesn't wait
Will deception's spectrum be wisdom's defeat
And dismiss herself from your burning meat?

I knew this meat all too well
Regretfully, I missed
But I don't understand this
Holding an oil-based lantern in this dark dark world
All the sheep have stopped bahhing
Seeking inside from their depravity
And never letting it in
And never letting it win
And never letting Him in

balloons are made of rubber...
... and they float too...
as will I to Heaven once I die...

I love this

''Sepulcher stacks await choice pieces of meat''
That line is so sad, but it's written really well.

Although,
''And never letting it in
And never letting it win
And never letting Him in''

...That sounds A bit too familiar for my liking lol. (But it's true..)

Brilliant poem.

Yeah most people like the idea of evil, but its not really them liking it.  Its the deceptive evil spirits depraving their minds that really love it.  Christ is far more than they could ever be, but you have to be able to see through the "pleasures" of this life.

God bless,
In Christ,
-Craig
