Evil thing
His arrogance and filthy breath
Smarter than you
Rainbow glistening on my back
Dirt in my eyes
And blood makes them clean
All arms, these arms, I see you

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

scary! I like the sort of scaryness in it. One question why is it called promises?

Interesting feel to it. Rather eerie, has a sort of creepy feeling in it. Though i must ask  
if you plan to continue it? i feel it can carry on. as if there is more to it... But all in all a most enjoyable read

hells gate reads Abandon hope all ye that enter here
shall we go?
the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
Will you walk with me?

Honestly who needs honesty, when we rapture the secrets will be known...  Deuteronomy 29:29

Its called "Promises" possibly for lack of a better term.  And which is the greater promise symbolized by the rainbow.  A land of milk and honey, or getting what you want because you think its what you need?

I could have made it longer, but I wanted to leave it sorta short as like an unanswered question.  Truthfully, I think it may actually be a little too long.

God bless,
In Christ,

"All arms, these arms, I see you"

This part, in my book, was perfect, it was such a great line...

Oh… so could we say it’s called promises cause it’s promising your “just” rewards in the end? That’s what I first thought when I read it…

Yet, I didn’t think it was too long or too short, I loved it at this length. It was an interesting read and definitely unique, which I liked but of course I prefer uniqueness…

Thanks for sharing it was another great write by you
