We live in a world of lies
People paid to act like friends
Swarming on putrid dung like flies
Agents of those who won’t make amends
This is how truth dies
Drowned by sound bites and media trends
The nymph sits by the waterfall and cries
Brotherhood stabbed, morality ends
Lead to nowhere by elder blind guides
I will tear down the wall that you have plastered with whitewash and bring it down to the ground, so that the foundation of it is exposed. It will collapse and you will be consumed within it. Then you will know that I am ADONAI.
Ezekiel 13:15
Swamped by convention and shame
Nobody even knows how to reveal themselves
His Infernal Majesty has achieved his aim
While we are covered head to toe, in fig leaves, like forest elves
Pretending that we’re like everybody else
Upstanding, inauthentic, utterly tame
Then Paul said to him, “God is going to strike you on the mouth, you whitewashed wall! Do you sit judging me according to the Torah, and yet in violation of the Torah you order me to be struck?”
Acts 23:3
Why do you fear judgment of those in their ivory steeple spires?
Who made them chiefs of God’s knight esquires?
Tangling all in the noose rope their hypocrisy requires
