A Little Box of Sin

a sinful inquiry

In this box that we’re in

Lightly sprinkled with sin

Comes apart at the seams

Like fairyland dreams

It weighs not an ounce

As it rolls with a bounce

With hardly a sound

It lands on the ground

Causing doubt and confusion

As it weaves its illusion

 

Let us pray night and day let us pray

 

Adam and Eve

All clothed and aggrieved

Full of shame and disgrace

For what they’ve done to their race

Tie the box with a rope

Forsaking all hope

They throw it downstream

To be lost in a dream

As it sinks in the mud

It’s stained with their blood

 

Let us pray night and day let us pray

 

Whirlwinds, trickster jinn’s

Pastel lights, Godless nights

Time begin, time begun

The string is cut, the rope undone

Crucifixion, benediction

Nightmare feast, waiting beast

Adoration, supplication

Surrender to heaven- be captured in hell

In this box that we’re in

Lightly sprinkled with sin

 

Let us pray night and day let us pray

Right now I'm singing this and playing my guitar. (Gotta love getting a Friday off.lol!) I like it alot. The rhythm and rhyme add to the expressed knowledge laced with nagging human confusion.

Like fairyland dreams"
