The Devil's Order by #X.

edited December 2007 in Poetry, Prose, Music & Art
The devil's world is striped and bold, but is not borne to us.
Violence borne from each man's day, each soil the
bodies of others. And the tidal wave, that washes us
free of our sins, destroy by the millions, borne another
million more.

Only we can catch the creep that causes us pain,
causes us to creep along the side rail and soar
above, singling the one's for pure torture and
one, that abides by the devil's composition.
Crush this flower so bold, so vain, we wish for another
devil to assume the pain created by our own kind.

Look to the skies so the pain feels straight.
Turn your head, and you will see so much more.
It's a get away, it's the excuse that only abides the
time we blame God ,or the Devil we all get to choose.
But the rational know that neither is to blame.
The earth is the purest form, and that's where we store Satan.
The skies' sliding holds the other power, the home of God.

Do we think they quarrel over us, they torture us through birth?
They hold our excuses, during growth to adult hood, but then
we again blame for our bodies slowing down.
Each day the tick of death that we celebrate looks us in the face.
We hone in, and own the greatest mistake, for only we can create
a title deemed Satan.

And the luggage of debt, and the luggage of anquish are boldly striped
the colors of sin. Sin is ours and it time to face it, and own it by name.
There is no Devil's order, there is no sin that's been forgiven,
it's all a story of myth and disbelief.

    What's there not to know?
    There is no devil/satan,
    or at least that is what I believe.
    He's been created to scare people
    into being good. You either have good
    values or you don't, and sins identified are
    they really sin? Another piece is about the earth.
    I love the earth, but by implying that the devil lives
    underneath, gives alot of people an excuse not to
    respect the earth, that in it's innocense loves us.

    Yeah I don't follow the devil resides underground in an infinite fiery torture chamber, no.

    I do believe in good/bad..right/wrong.
    Karma to me is fact.
    Being one with our Mother Earth, yeah I wish I was more in-tune with her,
    more respectful.
    It's not like I am throwing used oil into a trout stream.
    I am just saying we all have to own our mistakes, try and better ourselves,
    try and better this life, better those around us through respect, compassion.
    Bad seeds, yeah their are those who IMO don't deserve to breathe very much.
    To have good we gotta have bad.
    To have right we gotta have wrong.
    It's just the way this life is.
    I mean, if you like I could go on for many lines/hours in here
    describing what I personally believe or whatever.
    Their is only one.
    It is all one.
    (sitting here I look at my glass of water, I sooo love water)
    I bet you all the money in my pocket, which is not much,
    I bet you this water knows more than I (we) ever will.

    Karma, Yes, you did a great job explaining your beliefs, which are my beliefs, which are your beliefs, etc. etc. Thanks Chad I like your way of explaining the outcomes of life, and after. It's like the number ten X. in the Tarot cards, The Wheel of Fortune-describes the lessons learned while trying to balance the changes life presents. From death comes rebirth. From changes, new opportunities arise. Chad, may change support your growth. Remember tho the Devil sales. Hope your water isn't pasterized #X.

    you're hilarious - hope your water isn't pasteurized either.
    love myself some mountain spring water/waterfall yummy water.

    I hope I answered your question correctly is all.
    Seems like I did.
    Tarot cards, seen em, had em done to me.
    From death does come rebirth. (Is this reincarnation?)

    Chad it can be reincarnation, but I was thinking more about our
    day to day life. We continually have moments of death, and then new life. That is how we grow through out our life. Death can be those painful times,
    but recognizing that it is a cycle, life and death, and growth, bad and good, dark and light. Just remember when you think it can't get any worse, that it will cycle back. Now reincarnation does fit in. You learn so much in this life, what you do not learn, you get another go at it, in the following life. Why make so much effort to improve yourself, if you don't get to use that knowledge. Thanks Chad, we become philosophers when we think.

    You're correct, life/death=success/failure, happiness/agony.
    Not just living/breathing- death/nothingness.
    Or whatever.
    haha.
    my head hurts. (not really)
