Notes About The Poem

Breaking Bad

Breaking Bad


Criminals
dance with slum lords
they shed fake tears
victims they shout
from Ivory towers

Mock and attack
they of dark cloth and deceit
possesses no real God
they whoreship only their prey
living by night not day

Some even screech praise untowards
sick is the mind who follows
dead morals and upended graves
they really are the bully's slaves
Yet their churches pew is full

Criminals all
singing love songs
sewing fear and anger
no wonder God got fed up
evicting them one and all

A much belated congratulations on POTD honors for this fine piece. A message of truth and should stand as a warning to those that live and love to attack innocent victims. So true, they attack, hide and then themselves play as if they are the victim. Must be some kind of insanity... A fav, bold truth and a gem too...

Hi Arthur, Good quote and stellar write. In my opinion the only person a fake person is ( really)fooling is themselves! I may be late but congratulations on a well deserved poem of the day:-) Alexis

Souls whose hearts and minds filled with a huge void lack the blessings of Faith and Love, have no taste of a true feel and genuine care.. nothing for them to share! But spreading all that is fake and evil.. a well crafted rendition! Congratulations on your POTD honour, Arthur! My deepest regards and blessings.

That quote looks familiar lol! Some people believe in the idea of it I think and that's not how it's suppose to be! And no one is sin less it's ridiculous to even attempt it!;)

Think your quote says it all backed up by your own words. Just have tolook at the recent blogs victimiser who hides behind the bible quotes now turned to victim Hugs Jan xx

Some get attracted to the words but forget who is really speaking and don't realise the words don't equate to their actions.
