Reflections on
reading A Picture of Dorian Gray
Good Lord human
depravity!
Sown in the Garden of
Eden
Human hands and
cruelty
The worst scream I’ve
ever listened
Murder and
selfishness
Lost in carnal
delights
The corruption of
souls and innocence
Blotted out like a
candle at night
How can the pure and
good?
Be lost in the waves
of sin?
In the midst of depravity
No one knows how
blind they’ve been
Consumed with one’s
self
Till it’s an empty
shell
Wallowing in selfish
pleasures
Unaware it’s the herald
of hell
Oh let the watchers
watch!
And the listeners
listen!
Mind the tale!
The story that was
written
Fall not into the
trap
Of the easy way to
hell
The soul is a
precious thing
Pray! Keep it well!
