The Innocence of Sin

Believe in yourself

You can do anything if you 

Believe in yourself

Leo of the sun

May you always be strong

With your incessant pride

You are strong like a horse 

Wild, Uncontrollable

A horse that will be broken by a wheel

So small, almost insegnifigent 

You must fight

Fight to make your way in this world

A tiny little crab

Burring yourself in the sand

Trying to avoid the freezing water

Like a tame dog

whos bite is much worse than its bark

it's hidden deadly bark

Everything gets to you,

Does it not?

You, obviously must defend yourself

Just keep beating your head 

Against a wall

like a stupid ram

Becuase everything,

Everything that goes wrong

Only tears you apart

Just sit back and relax

Don't flood your life with work

Do nothing, and all you'll be able to do is flop around

like a helpless fish

But watch where you flop

because snakes love fish

Oh the virgin!

How innocent you are

Always focusing on everything else

You have no need for leachery

There is so much more to aquire!

Lust would only ruin it

The money your work bring

has treated you to some lovely things

Perhaps a lovely oil bath?

Enjoy the good things in life

Do you work from , like an archer

Dont stress yourself too much

Food is a wonderful thing

It can be the most wonderful thing out there

Whether you need it or not

Bury your face in like a pig

Be careful to watch what you eat

Don't want to consume anything unpleasant

With all the things that go wrong in life

There has to be something

to balance it all out

Pleasure of the body

It's such a beautiful thing

You're quite beautiful yourself...

You'll get all the delight you need

Beware, after a while

those kisses will start burning

...The pains of hell await...

So, Many people know I'm not very religious. I'm a Unitarian Universalist ,though, so I'm always open minded. I thought it would be a cool idea to write about something associated with religion. So this is it. I'm not sure how much I like it though.

Such an underotne you put in it. Almost like "go ahead its ok, your only going to burn for eternity"

I was confused until I read the link .. and now I really like it =) The poem is captivating and interesting in its premise -- the use of color really brings the point home. Great! I look forward to more (and am tempted to do something similar myself, if you don't mind the idea being borrowed).
