I cannot be the sycophant that you want me to be
So i'm leaving in the morning and I don't want any tea
I may not ever reach the heights that you've attained
I'm happy as I am, with my own common brain
You're a pompous ass, acting like you have a kingdom
Your wealth doesn't equate  with having wisdom
You can be a wealthy genius,and have no common sense
People without the help of deity can be very dense
Wisdom and happiness come from a spiritual store
Can't be earned or bought,they're a gift from Creator
To do the things you ask of me is a slap in God's face
I'd be a fool if I were to act without His grace

ET-2007

Intriguingly aspiring and so many times we all fall from grace. It is then we need to stop and pray for forgiveness to gain his light and hopefully respect....

Sounds like someone just plumb pissed you off here sugar chum. A persons priorities, in life, can make or break them - that's a fact! Such resolve and strength in this from such a petite young thing! (-:

So you're not a sycophant,
You could be like me gaining weight,
And turning into an elephant,
Though my trunk is quite altogether elegant...me & he

Eileen,

Stick to your beliefs, and He'll never steer you wrong. I hope this is the Muse talking, but it's a powerful voice of strength and courage. Well done.

Emotive feel to this one, Eileen; very well penned! BRAVA!

Don't know if I will ever be back here; I am getting very discouraged! Keep me in your prayers!
