I can relate
Mood: sadHoly Sonnet I: Tho Has Made Me
John Donne
Tho has made me, and shall thy work decay?
Repair me now, for now mine end doth haste;
I run to death, and death meets me as fast,
And all my pleasures are like yesterday.
I dare not move my dim eyes any way,
Despair behind, and death before doth cast
Such terror, and my feeble flesh doth waste
By sin in it, which it towards hell doth weigh.
Only thou art above, and when towards thee
By thy leave I can look, I rise again;
But our old subtle foe so tempteth me
That not one hour myself I can sustain.
Thy grace may wing me to prevent his art,
And thou like adamant draw mine iron heart.
John Donne
Tho has made me, and shall thy work decay?
Repair me now, for now mine end doth haste;
I run to death, and death meets me as fast,
And all my pleasures are like yesterday.
I dare not move my dim eyes any way,
Despair behind, and death before doth cast
Such terror, and my feeble flesh doth waste
By sin in it, which it towards hell doth weigh.
Only thou art above, and when towards thee
By thy leave I can look, I rise again;
But our old subtle foe so tempteth me
That not one hour myself I can sustain.
Thy grace may wing me to prevent his art,
And thou like adamant draw mine iron heart.

| Check out the books by Lee Strobel. The Case for a Creator is an excellent read. It's non biased. And you hear both sides of the story concerning creation vs accident/random/evolution.
I can tell you up front Darwin is shot down quite harshly. But on a serious note it leaves the reader with a decision to make. |

| I wanted the main speaker of the story to seem more distant from the reader, hence the swear words.
I hope they didn't offend you. And I really think you should look the piece over again, reconsider what it means. I've layed quite a few details, some should speak louder than others (like the intentionally misspelled enunciation of Africa versus things like our main character swearing). Well, either way.. Thanks for stopping by. I've been needing one peculiar comment of late and you just happen to give it to me.. so thank you!  Outlaw |
