Most High

Take your glorious beauty, your handsome perfect body. Take your precious stones: Your sardius, topaz, and diamond, your beryl, onyx, and jasper, your sapphire, turquoise, and emerald full of gold. Take it all! Don’t be so vainglorious as you kiss yourself like a drooling whore. God loves his son who is not you.

Awesome poem, Kenneth,, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
