Tithes by hypergig(op): 7:54am On Nov 30, 2017
So much talk about Pastorpreneurs and the need to curb their excesses, I decided to write a poem on this.

...................
Nothing short of pick pockets
Proding and taunting every penny from your pocket
Make haste or be short of glory
Tilt your pocket out or be short of heaven

Raging words, enslaving snare
Waging breaths, infuriating stench
And there we are seated on benches

Come tithe your wages, rippling offerings in cascading tents

I am your pastor, your sole conduit to heaven
Seek thy father or be doomed and cast farther

Freeze said it using biblically lingering words
Toned with biblically bickering threats

Free the sheeples or like moses said " free my people".

don't take this the wrong way but, poetry is a lot more than jambling rhymes together...
and those rhymes aren't even properly rhymed.
