Ross Blade Poet Monorhyme

Wild Sheep

Wild Sheep

Hero of the people I stood tall.
Yet by my wicked hand my flight did stall,
and so shame struck like a musket ball.

Rattled of mind I saw only gall.
Papers, Parish and Police would call,
So in horror I hailed Hallowed Hall.

As you spiralled downward in free fall
Did you ponder who'd shepherd your dall,
Or who would sow your funeral Pall?

Will Sunday become the shopping mall,
And sermons the ads across the wall?
The truth is we're all wild sheep, yes all.

But your deed, in one voice we appall.

Honestly, I think it would work incredibly well as a manga or webtoon and could help you reach an even bigger audience. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist, and I'd love to help bring your story to life if you're ever interested. Feel free to reach out at gm@il: [email protected] inst@ akiraa_artly

Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
