  I first posted this as a reply to this thread: http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/128569/1.ashx, but I'm so pleased with how this came out, that I wanted it to have its own thread.

  The Judgment of the Watchtower
  The day is fast approaching...
  The judgment is at hand...
  Soon all the gb hypocrites
  Will be forced to understand.

  They soon will see their empire
  Crumble from disuse
  They truly could avoid this,
  But it appears they're too obtuse.

  For they fail to notice,
  They totally dismiss
  The proof they've lost God's favor.
  They pretend nothing's amiss.

  But answer us this question,
  Oh guardians from the tower.
  Why can the mere internet
  Undermine your lofty power?

  Could it be the answer,
  Lies simply in the fact,
  That it's only with Satan
  With which the Watchtower has a pact?

  That is a great poem! I wrote one a few years ago similar in nature to yours.

  Whispers on a flighty wind, heaving bellows from the past

  New day dawns with little hope

  of grandeur dreams, or lovers toast.

  Woman who sees when in the dark, trips upon the aged bark

  naively feeding a hungry shark

  when will she ever learn?

  Raised within religions worst, captured mind and fractured heart

  covered heads that bow in shame

  escape the evil escape the game.

  As tenderly the babe was given, the anger of the unforgiven

  willingly abuse the pure.

  Dance deftly into Satan’s lure.

  Enjoy the fire enjoy the pain, what did you think you had to gain? ~Apostate Kate

  ...and {{{{{{{{Thomas}}}}}}} hugs for making our Mouthy happy

  Cher Abandone' ---

  Yes, I knew I had read your poem earlier, but elsewhere. I'm glad it has its own thread now. You mentioned the pleasing flow of Kate's poetry. Likewise yours, including past-posted poems.
  You appear to have different "voices," as I like to put it. There is your carefree banter among friends, your formal and correct declarations, and your "effortless" poetry. Cadence - the rhythmic flow of sounds in language - comes naturally to gifted writers (and speakers?) such as yourself. I sense what you do - you are facile with language, suiting it to the needs and circumstance in which you express yourself. Have you consciously given consideration to this - your varying modes of communication?

  Abandoned, ApostateKate

  I liked your poems - surviving evil and living to tell, warn and fightt - good stuff, encouraging

  Apostate Kate

  I agree CoCo, Abandond's writing is exceptional in many ways. Would like to read much more from him.

  Thomas do you have any more poetry written?
