The Priest


As I preach to the people

From this steeple

I start to question this thought of mine

“How is it possible that there’s such a thing as a being so divine?”

No book or person has the power

To claim that they are able to empower

Dare I deny my own teachings?

Or continue these preachings?

I have lost my mind

Following something so blind

I speak the bible’s word

But it’s nothing but absurd!
