boldly treading that sacred trail..
Never thinking he shall fail..
tempting demons will wayward breath..
killing saints with no regrets..
destroying ancient lines of wissend trents
burning at the stake though who pour hope..
slaughtering childer that differ from him
TO their screams of anguish he pays no mind..
Forever he perches on that fine line
know his doom is just a matter of time..
yet onward, while downward, he shall tread..
in his wake lies relief...
and dread..
who is this creature who I so lovenly portray?
Why, what other creature is so filled with disparity?

...whom other than Humanity...

Love is an attempt at penetrating another being,But it can only succeed if the surrender is mutual.

Sometimes I believe this poem is a great work..ad other times, just a plagerism of the truth...

No, Edward, it is it's own truth and it's timely and thought out.

Well struck, wordsmith.

Thinking is just what a great many people think they are doing when they are merely rearranging their predjudices.
