Obviously Misused Pride

Obviously Misused Pride
By: Nash



effortless pride consumes my confidence
driven life that I despise. ashamed of my
wrong doings... and so my eyes hide
from the people we kill, or the reasons
for a roof above my family's hide.
we are men to our people, mice to others
our tactics? lethal, relentless...
and we're smothered by the carcases.
but not physically, only by guilt -
enough of it to build monuments.
nothing's nice about this job, but some
like it and just off... any one that they
see coming our way when we're fighting
all day in an array of blood covered
bodies. then we burn the dead and go
on to torture the rest... my head hurts.
no body cares though, and if I object
I'll be sent to death or worse...
the best I have is prayer
and so I'll use it [our enemy's tool]:
father please forgive us...
for we know just what we do.
I'm sorry we follow an evil man
and slaugher all these jews.
please forever stain our hands
inside the blood they give for you.
time will tell, and I pray it will...
and I pray this is a war we'll lose.
my life is all I have to give, so
I'll hold my head down... and continue
to switch this cigar full of stress
with this bible placed under my pillow
where I regret to say it's misused.

this was a awesome read man... i loved how it was subtle then it hit with a nice push of confidence in wording and the effort with emotion i felt nicely dude... the words portrayed in here was just absolutely brute in the line of creativity man... your words stood out in your own form of deliberance.... great job cry
