You've always got to be the martyr
For reasons you can't clearly remember
So free to cast your judgment
Constantly indulging your intolerant temperament
Caring nothing for others spiritual dispensation
Drowning in self-righteousness, decreeing Damnation
Mortal laws aren't your concern, heeding only His call
Ever hear of Pride preceding the Fall?
Wearing your crucifix as a symbol of faith
Witnessing (what you feel) the Lord has saith
Raised in the Church, God's soldier, an insatiable addiction
Awaiting Rapture, Fearing Revelation, Tribulation
You're no priest, knowing nothing of true Grace
Just give others a little space
Holy Father,Holy Ghost, the Lord is a Shepherd
A true disciple, living by the Word
Choirboy, proving your worth by sung accouterments
Altar boy, displaying your faith with holy cerements
Quoting the Bible, never at a loss
You'll never stop riding the cross

Angelineabout 11 years agogood, interesting images and phrasings, but overall it comes off more polemic than poem. I think if you got rid of more explanation and expanded the metaphors and images, your piece would sound less ranty and thus be more powerful Just my opinion and I gave a five for the obvious work that went into it.
