Thank you! I actually considered hellfire originally but felt it didn’t have enough punch but that seems to have been to my detriment, I appreciate the feedback and will take your advice on board for the next one :)

[Poem]
Get down from there!
They shout and stare
As I stand on this rooftop
Without a care
​
Like a phoenix
Ready to soar
Grasping for power
A want to do more
​
People have done crazier things
To attain the greatness I seek
But with ground approaching fast
I wish I wasn't so wea-- >!SPLAT!<

The internal struggle of spiritual belief:
​
Take care of your divinity
It allows you to spread light
Salting the earth with
Grains of unearned positivity
​
Winds whispering the words
Corralling the masses to herd
While they hang on every word
It all seems so absurd
​
Holy water blinding their vision
Wrath filled, dreaming of desire
Be careful if you disagree with them
Or you’ll burn in hell, in fire.
