another shitty poem (?)

Welp I decided to delay my homework and do this instead…. I don’t like it at all…. But should still share anyway…. Why not? I don’t like a lot of things about it…. It flows kind of sporadically threw out it, although it still feels all like one piece at least…. so meh…. It kind of feels like it’s having a heart attack…. (the poem (if you can call it that))

*start*

Let’s think outside of our bodies

And stop acting like photo copies

Of the worst in society

You’re on your knees, call it piety

Oh please, just stop speaking

Of this paradise you’re seeking

Praying daily like an addiction

Begging for a thing that’s a work of fiction

While you just don’t seem to care

About what’s going on out there

In this world that we live in

But it’s alright, you’ll forgiven

Right? That’s an awful lie

You let this rot inside your mind

And now you don’t even bat an eye

When a bunch of fucking orphans die

 

And yet I am the bad person

While you have this greater purpose

Yet you don’t try to improve

This world, you just disapprove

Of differing ideologies

I’m being rude, my apologies

It’s not your fault , that I see

 

And what’s all this bullshit I hear?

“Beware everyone, the end is near”

“God hates fags, and sinners should fear”

Didn’t you say the same shit just last year?

Just shut the fuck up

Don’t you see that you are corrupt?

You just don’t practice what you preach

You sit there and act like a leech

You suck the good out of many people

Make them evil beneath your steeple

Unite them under a flag of hatred

That you’ve created

Yet you claim that you teach love

Show people how to rise above

Their sins, pave their way up to heaven

Keep them safe from Armageddon

 

And yet I am the bad person?

I need to find a greater purpose?

I’ll be going down to hell?

You want me to walk on eggshells?

I won’t as you create your monsters

Won’t allow you to grow stronger

I’ll baptize you, leave you drowning in water

While your sheep line up for slaughter

 

I’m saying you are no preacher

If in your sermon you do feature

Hatred.  Your words are impure

I will crush your empire

There is nothing wrong with believing

In a god or life after leaving

So long as you are mindful

Stop caring about the bible

More than human happiness

Then you won’t need forgiveness

Stop acting like you are helping

By praying, that shit’s not selling

That shouldn’t make you feel greater

To sit there like “please creator”

“Make sure those kids eat tonight”

While you sit there and just recite

A prayer over a fucking feast

You could have shared some at least

With those dying of starvation

Or given some type of donation

Maybe some time or money

I don’t know but it’s kinda funny

That you are a good person

Sitting there with a greater purpose

 

While I see this suffering

You sit there just coloring

In the lines of your perfect life

While the rest of the world’s filled with strife

You choose to stay so blind

Well feeling like you’re well aligned

It’s easy to make a change

Even just a kind exchange

Can brighten a person’s day

Just think about what you say

And don’t make others want to cry

And curl up and want to die

And accept and love everyone

That rule is number one

Then you’ll be a good person
