Poem of The Day - Judgement Day
August 16, 2008 Poem, Poem of The Day, Religion No Comments
Judgment Day Is Just Around The Corner
Words can kill and you’ve had your fill
Murdered a hundred and your killing them still
Telling your lies and stinking air
Making gray skys
A storm will come after you
The condemned and unforgiven
Live in a land of unliven
Where snakes hold up and the lizards crawl
Where the sun don’t shine
Wall to wall
Ain’t no living among the unforgiven
No life at all
Nothing living
At high rise of the moon
Piercing stars hide out of site
And it all comes out in the moonlight
In this rocky place
There is no water anyplace
There is no rest in this place
Don’t want to come here
Don’t want to be here
You don’t want to go there
You don’t want to be there
Don’t want to be in this place
Make it good before its done to you
You don’t want what you done
Done to you
Better make it good today
For judgment day is tomorrow

*****************
Do you believe in judgment day? It is a big part of my religious background. I question all of my religious background, even this, but I can’t help but believe in judgement. I have to believe that people who take advantage of others will someday, maybe in another place and time, will themselves be taken advantage of as they did to others. I just have to believe that what comes around goes around, that there just has to be justice. Such a belief, though I cannot know for sure if it is true or not, gives us hope, that if we do good, then goodness will be done to us.
