Original Sin

by Jubal O'Gard Aries - Not entered

A shallow grave I lay the babe
Tears of blood I cry
My how fast life does wain
When an infant dies
Like a Satanic Pentecost
The Doldrums of Order lost
Life is fought without the Rule
Hate thy neighbor lest they Love you
Sell your soul for Paradise Lost
Praise your mind for Hell regained
Climb the stairs to Celestial Order
Careful, do not cross the Border
Lest you are deported and sent alone
Bact to the Eternal Midden
Like your parents you are thrown
Out of the Garden of Eden

Reason for writing:

    Sometimes I just sit down and begin to write and I spew this stuff out in amongst my regular poetry.  I have never dared sought criticism on this type of poetry from anyone so I figured that total strangers would be the most honest audience I could have.  Any criticisms will be accepted with open arms and a warm embrace.
