Thou Shalt Not Scorn!

Thou shalt not scorn 'cos you have to reap what you sow in this lifetime itself!
Thou Shalt Not Scorn!
This rant is about the mean spirited people who are busy digging their graves deeper to reach their fate as quick as possible. The irony is they do so in vain and with excessive pride.

Thou shalt not scorn.
For if you do,
You would be digging
Your own grave deeper.
 
Thou shalt be courteous
And thankful to life.
For if you are not,
You choose to be a beast
Who will be shunned by life.
 
Thou shalt command respect.
'Cos if you demand so,
You’ll just keep on chasing
A mirage that you don’t deserve.
 
Thou shalt stop playing
Plots and mind games,
Or you will be victimized
Within your own trap.
 
Thou shalt get you
Down in the dumps,
'Cos you think you can rise
Only after you make others fall.
 
Thou shalt pay in this lifetime,
For you got your deeds done.
Your boastfulness and ego
Will definitely get a return.
 
Thou shalt drown
In the sea of your own vices.
Ill fate would befall upon you
As you would pay for every outcry.
 
As you stand defeated,
Mocking your own self,
Thou will be answerable.
To God, to your conscience,
To all of 'Us' one day!!
 
There you would stand in pity,
As we have the last laugh,
There you'd lie
With your hands empty
 
I am sure then,
Thou shalt not scorn.
And we shall scorn!!
