Words As Shields

Pride comes before a fall.
Hear the footsteps running.
Sounding of a carrion call.
Baying for blood that will be sucked dry.
Hope has been dashed.
Decapitation upon this stone of shame.
Another donation slaughtered in a wretched name.

God is not your witness or your ally.
Speak of piety while you stab at innocent eyes.
Words as shields protect guilt drenched lies.

Cruelty bathed in mock helpfulness.
Futures branded heretic.
Picking at bones that once had a life to live.
Take what is craved without a willingness to forgive.

God used as your weapon of choice.
Declarations twisted right before watching eyes.
Words as shields protect guilt drenched lies.

Survival is pot luck in this age of mutilation.
Prosperity is a falsified ovation.
Choking out dawn to forever dwell in dusk.
Statements manufactured to bolster commitment.
But this is a lie just like all the others.
Power is a crutch over which these people lust.
Craving deepening valleys of adherence and adoration.
Do not be blind to this sacrificial degradation.

Words as shields protect guilt drenched lies.
Open.
Open.
Open your eyes.
These people are snakes wearing a disguise.
