Stingy
Did you see a friend in need?
Did you deny to share a seed?
Did you see a friend in lack?
You put your hands behind your back?
Is it within your power to help?
Does the thought cause you to yelp?
Then I am sorry to let you know,
As stingy is, does stingy show.
The gift so easy for you to give,
That could of meant a life to live,
Did you see someone in pain?
Yet didn't help, you just refrain.
Hold to your money very tight,
While God may call you tonight.
Don't get involved, stay outside,
Keep everything where you hide.
And if you live longer than the rest,
Know that in heaven they are blessed.
But worry for what good did you do,
When it didn't benefit you.
Think carefully, maybe you have time,
To make it right, to turn out fine.
For all alone you're doomed to be,
A lonely soul with your money.

Ouch did you feel that? Did it make you hurt?
Then I did my job, quiet yet curt.
Did you feel compassion, guilt or Glee?
Then I fulfilled my Battle Poetry.
See this page is meant to make you think,
Maybe what I say, you may think stinks.
But guaranteed it will make you feel,
And reality is so surreal.
So read, get mad or maybe cry,
But guaranteed I did not lie.
So read, enjoy, laugh and have fun,
For Battle Poetry has begun.
