A Few Bible Based Poems

[Meek and Humble]

I recently read the book of Psalms, and I felt like trying my own hand at poetry, based on the Psalms.

Oh Lord, I pray you smash my enemies in little itty bitty pieces!
I know you hate my enemies!
When they are dead, they'll no longer remember You,
And I know you hide from those who need you the most!
Please send fire raining down on the wicked!
Those atheists are all fools!
Send the fire that comes out of your mouth,
Ride down on your cherubs!
Oh God of peace, teach me how to kill my neighbors
Burn all of those who you don't like!
Rip them all to shreds!
Kill them all, and let us laugh at them!
Thank you for making them so bad so we could laugh at them!
Go on Lord, knock all their teeth out!
I want to wash my feet in their blood!
Make them blind and torment them forever!
Make their loans shake even as the earth sits still!
Fill the world with dead bodies!
We sing Your praises when your slaughter babies!
We are so happy when WE slaughter babies!
Our Father who art in Hell,
I hate Your enemies with a PERFECT hatred!
Burn everyone to death!
Amen.

[Ezekiel Bathfire]

Well, I read that without noticing the title and, noticing the lack of thy, ye, 'eth' verb endings and 'raging with a great ragings', etc, I thought I had stumbled across your quoting NIV - I think you have captured a lot of the spirit of God's Compassion there brother.
