As I always feel that putting pen to paper is almost as good as telling someone your feelings... Here is a poem I wrote about the b0rg:
The Other Sheep...
A flock of sheep on one dark night,
Lays down to sleep, all seems right,
Then silently, without a sound,
One falls prey to an evil hound.One lost white sheep has fallen prey,
Yet still their numbers remain the same.
The sheep still lay in peaceful slumber,
As demonic eyes plot their plunder.'Neath the guise of a pure white cowl,
Stands a grey beast with blood soaked jowls.
The sheep sleep on, unaware,
They live their life without a care.This so-called sheep raises himself aloft,
To lead the flock to pastures lost,
A greener field beyond the borders,
They follow behind and follow orders.This Other Sheep is now the Shepherd,
And leading the flock to be slaughtered,
Though all they see is a white disguise,
Their leader will very soon be their demise.'Neath the guise of a pure white cowl,
Stands a grey beast with blood soaked jowls.
The sheep march on, unaware,
They search for the pastures without a care.With crimson teeth, appetite diminished,
The dirt beneath tells a story not finished.
Of how a beautiful flock was led astray,
And keeps on following the wolf to this day.Millions lost, their minds controlled,
By this deceptive wild beast of old,
A congregation, a flock no less,
Needs a Shepherd now and to be blessed.'Neath the guise of a pure white cowl,
Stands a grey beast with blood soaked jowls.
The Shepherd sees into the beasts evil heart,
Just a matter of time before it's soul will depart.
This one is about Armageddon. It is somewhat of a retort to the phrase "apolcalypse now"... it came to mind whilst listening to the Thin Lizzy song "Angel of Death".
Apocalypse When?
This world we live in will soon pass away
This we have been told for 2 thousand yearsA time of the likes this world has never seen
A divine intervention of an unworldly degreeThe Bible, it has spoken about this era,
Armageddon, faith and fear the name does inspire.Earthquakes, famine, death and destruction,
peaceful life, no tears nor disruption,
We are promised these things, we have prayed and then,
No sign of a new world... Apocalypse, WHEN?The Earth gets worse, polluted with evil minds,
The Four Horsemen have come, and still they ride.Death runs amock, millions of souls stolen in his raid.
Those who are lucky perish at his blade.The rest live our lives, awaiting the Angel of Death,
Is he late, did he die with faith's last breath?Holocaust, ethereal battle, death and destruction,
(God give us) peaceful life, no tears nor disruption.
We are promised these things, and still no sign,
Lord kill me now, if it is past the Time.Even though our faith is like the strongest rock,
Even stones are corroded by the flowing of time.
Please God, if our faith is too late,
Let us fall into the Oblivion that we deserve.Otherwise.....
Let us overcome the death and destruction,
Give us peaceful life, no tears nor disruption,
You have promised these things, to you we bow,
A sign of a new world, PLEASE, Apocalypse NOW.
I'm by far no professional... just helps a little ya know... Does anyone else write? (These were written more as lyrics than poetry, but it still works I guess)
