Hermit

He has lived his life in seclusion
Alone in the woods made his home
Of community life came to conclusion
He was much better off living alone

It was not that he was scared
He feared not man nor beast
In fact if his soul was bared
It was society he liked the least

Every corner held temptation
Every alley was paved in sin
Every pedestal preached damnation
Every group tried him to win

He loved his lone existence
For he knew his soul was weak
Alone he had true guidance
As with nature he would speak

For nature knew not of sin
It knew only to survive
Here he didn't have to win
Or to hurt just to stay alive

He took only what he needed
To live from day to day
And just like nature he heeded
God's signals along the way

People thought he was full of hate
To live his life like he did
It was love of God I do debate
That kept him alone and hid

Of city's constant calls of malign
There was no defense for him
To save his soul from Satan's tine
He lived where there was no sin

Brian
