House of Deceits (Poem)
There lies the missing mark
No one is inexcusable
No one is exempted
Holy pretenders are we all
In place of worship seated, wearing false smiles
Different looks they wear
As their feet kiss the place of worship
Holy walk, holy pleasantries
Warm smiles, there come the wolves in sheep clothing
Hearts of deceits, thoughts of men
In depth of thoughts seated in holy smiles
Murders plan the more
Embezzlers strategize to siphon the more
Evil thoughts rule their hearts
Hearts full of deceits, mislead with false smiles
Some assumed demi gods
Some politic to shatter
Some murder with words
Tribes their usual songs to sing
House of deceits, there lies the missing mark
The ancient marks are erased
Places of worship turn social clubs
Morales, ethics murdered in cold blood
The pulpits preach to sweet
The pews yell in accord
If the films of our hearts to play
Stampede awaits the crowd to flee
Surprises our guest to come
Holy pretenders, house of deceits
Hearts of men, thoughts of evils
