A Slap In God's Face

A Slap In God's Face

A Poem by Sirius King


 A Slap In God’s Face

(Poem by Serenus)


Blessed with gifts

That you don’t even use

God gave you legs to walk

 But you refuse to move

 

To express and talk

He gave you a voice

But when it's time to speak up

You’re silent by choice

 

Wasting all of your talents and potential

Squandering your chance to be influential

What if it all was taken away?

Where would you be today?

  

You have all you need

To thrive and maintain

But yet and still

 You sit and complain

 

Concerned with the treasures

That others hold

Adoring their gifts

And neglecting your own

 

Chasing after the material

The silver and gold

Forgetting about the spiritual

Your mind and your soul

 

How dare you reject

The Father's amazing grace

The ultimate disrespect

…A Slap in God's Face

I dedicate this poem to all those ignorant people I left behind in my neighbor before I when to college. Every day I watched people like this, I'm talking very talented people throwing their lives away for fast money, hoes, and clothes. I go back to see them from time to time and they still have not amounted to nothing.

The image in the beginning is hilarious before reading the poem.

This was great! Reminds me of all the people who sit playing video games all day and never see the great outdoors any more. I loved the humor and the boldness of this poem. Great Job!

When I saw the title, I was hesitant to read, but I see now what you're saying. I love this poem, and I think everyone can learn a thing or two from it. Great work!

My pleasure! :D
My homeowners insurance was increased by 375$ with no good reason other than
i live in a crime plagued neighborhood. Sometimes the material chases you.

I think your saying that just belief is not enough..but ignorance is not rejection.
knowing there is God and not doing something with him is a personal slap in the face.

not a slap in God's face..

very interesting poem. dana
