sHEep

we've been rejected, even HE grew restless ever feeding the empty well

HE needed three, we felt eyed hence sent the letter lest we befell greed.

we grew helpless, tested severely.

then entered envy, tempted endlessly we were.

the seventh sent the best gem; excess envy, renewed state. we felt revered, we were revered.

these hexes were the best hence hell we were sent.

the men there were selfless we tell thee, the greenest trees wept wherever we went. "spend the eve" HE festered.

berserk emerged.

HE spewed hell, nevertheless we merely bled. the red jewels fell nervelessly, we expected the end.

messengers flew then knelt, we were better, they were gentle.

then letter be seen we repent.

sweet hell remember me. sweet eden never let thee free.

I wrote the poem sHEep based off the vowel E. It tells a story based on a persons conscience and the events that led them to repent their ways. The HE in the poem refers to the devil inside ones self. It is capitalized in the title and poem to imply significance and the potential influence it has over the person. With HE being the shepherd, "we" refers ones self and the pure side of the conscience. As the sheep, both are being constantly tended/influence by the shepherd. At the end of the poem I used the term "me" to show a lasting peace, for there is no longer the conflict of good vs. evil.
