The GIFT

CATEGORY

Views: 4

 

Ancestral leg bones 

A mother grimaced 

 

as another of repeated 

rounds of pain 

 

washed over 

the young mothers face

 

Legs spread open wide 

showed promise

 

Undulating rhythmic contractions

Blessed the passage 

 

of the heavenly gift

A young prince 

 

delivered with pride 

A welcome sight

 

To the elder women 

of the tribe

 

Another soul upon which 

The Creator had bestowed a crown... 

 

Joy spread throughout the village

Celebration shared another soul 

 

to build wealth

Sent by the ancestors 

 

as a renewal for the future

All praise to the Creator

 

 

 

Far in the distance, 

 

Another creature Head bowed,

in defiance scowled, 

 

let all that’s holy be damned,

continued profanity laced tirades

 

about anything and everything

considered to be decent. 

 

Howled with disgust,

He sensed a presence

 

He swore he'd never trust

A hateful scowl formed with pursed lips

 

He was not pleased at this, 

Unfortunate turn of events

 

even for his next breath

He cursed, a foul mix of words… 

 

Stirred an ill smelling stew

added things Dark and ugly,

 

so much so…

it offended the spoon

 

Something changed inside the man 

Devoted his soul to an odd old demon,  

 

Just passing by. He slammed open the door

Off its hinges. Let out a HELL Raising Roar!

 

Said out loud, Just what I’d been waiting for.

He tore off his left foot, boot and all 

 

Threw it dead into the soup

Placed his finger to his temple and farted,

 

saying Oops! My mistake, NOT!

A hubris, disguised as pride

 

Engulfed him, something foul and vile 

Awakening inside,

 

he felt something 

Was amiss it was blasphemy, sure

 

But how could he resist,

a good Hell raising

 

A Demonic Ritual Revival…

The Final Battle

 

Even for this to exist, The Great Satan

Must preapprove, even this. 

 

Something the scriptures had said, 

Warmed his disposition a bit

 

His mood began to shift. That’s it

This was all part of a greater plan. 

 

To shame the Creator, by the theft 

of the crown
