Pride goes before a fall.
Oh Lucifer!
How have you fallen from heaven?
"I desire the honour and glory of the almighty"
I'm beautiful, i have power, i'm intelligent.
Then I desire his honour
Like unto Nebuchadnezzar,
"I have power" he brags
and was led low into the wilderness
feeding on grasses and
crawling through the earth.
Look back unto Herod
How he was praised to death
As he speaks,They said;
"The voice of God, and not of a man".
Then was strucked with worms.
Look your ways lest you fall like Lucifer
Do not be pompous else be led to eat
grass like king Nebuchadnezzar.
Nor brag and praise yourself,
History will record you as the next victim
of worm like unto Herod.
Power comes and leaves in
just a twinkle of an eye.
Be wise and be humble.
Pride is the pathway to the mud.
