I look upon the arrogant.

Postby Giratina93 » Tue May 25, 2010 11:20 pm

Jus ta little something that I had to do for English...

I looked upon the arrogant,
The proud without a care.
Their hearts are turned away from you,
And violence they wear.

They speak against you, Lord, and yet
They’ve wealth and strength and power.
Why do you let them triumph now?
Come, Lord, this is the hour!

In vain, then, have I kept your laws
And lived a righteous life?
For I am weak and sick and poor.
Each day brings only strife.

But when within your temple, Lord,
I understand aright.
Their path is dark and leads to death,
Mine to eternal life.

All hail the glory that is Tenshi, the Sunkern!

So? I'm more of one, but that doesn't mean I cant appreciate some pretty good poetry when I see it, as in this case.

Ah, but you said you disliked it, no? So you like it but disagree with what it's saying?
