Shine Through

by East Poetry   Feb 12, 2010


The Devil resides in no where land,
Where he an his minions dwell.
And with a third the hosts of all,
they mope around in hell.

They wallow there in nowhere land,
forever on the run.
Comprehending not, the light
of an ever shining sun.

The one and only Son of god,
Also known as Christ.
Who shines for every one of us,
tis he who paid the price.

His radiance, the purest love.
A love that never dims.
In perfection his existence smiles.
And we are part of him.

In infinite inner space,
where our universe expands.
Into infinite outer darkness,
where Satan makes his plans.

Its funny Satan thinks,
that he is something great.
Above the clouds and stars
he totes, in words so full of hate.

But in no where land he wallows,
full of rage and jealousy.
Envious we exist in matter,
he tricks our agency.

This poor sap, he has no clue.
he has no where to hide.
As infinite everything shines through him,
on its never ending ride.

    The religious theme of it made it more interesting, how the devil thinks is great is really foolish and i thank you for writing something like this to point it out to him.

    Interesting title.
    I like the whole piece, actually. I like the play of words with 'exfinity' (is it a real word?) I find it shows a bit of your humor. The rhymes flowed really well whilst delivering the message smoothly. I haven't been writing rhymed poetry in a while, so I applaud you for patience and consistency lol.
    It does seem like topics on religion and science are your forte. Stepping out of your comfort zone would be nice too.
    Overall, a good read. Keep it up

    I'm pretty sure I read the first part of this poem and it was similar to this with the flow and religious views. I thought it was pretty good, a bit weird but atleast the flow was done really well again like the first one. I like that it was unique but I wouldn't continue writing more and more poems along the line of this one or they won't seem as good. Nice job

    This was very well written. it definitely makes me think a lot deeper than the usual poems i read. these lines were my favorite though,
    "They sit and mope in Exfinity,
    forever on the run.
    Comprehending not, the light
    of an ever shining sun."
    great job! :)
