There Was War In Heaven Poem by Obiaeli Ifediirichukwu Victor

There Was War In Heaven



A seed of greed sown between brothers
A seedling of jealousy sprouting in bloods
A tree of overambitious want grown between two
Deadly can its flowers be
Possessive can its roots be
Two brothers in heaven fought a war
One, protecting the throne
The other vying for it
A palace coup it should have been
But turned treasonable felony
Two brothers fought a war
The other thrown down amongst us
In his beauty and glory
He fell towards us due to the war
The war of the seed of greed
War broke out in heaven like a widespread fire
All because of one filth being of beauty
And he landed upon us when he fell
Possessing brothers, making lovers slide in war
But to you be pleased
May you not be possessed by the upthrust roots
Nor be lured close by the flowers
War among brothers... always blindfolded
When the kill starts
It's thirst beyond quench
Let there be no war on earth
Before fresh blood turn fuel in hell
