Evil Intent

Vile creatures write bibles in a hole
Cursed with powers out of control
To take what is not theirs, that is the goal
Satanic smiles saved for such occasions

In seclusion they build commandments 
Create wars, massacre the masses, laugh
In their souls darkness starts with madness
Intentions are so simple posed in words 

Babies cry out from their protected womb    
Evil hears them long before their birth
Sprinkled like fairy dust the demons come
Disarming in charm, there to lead them on

Fresh to the taste of life in air the infants take
Breathe their first breath through labor pain
Laid bare and frankly, dangerous
They scream out loud for no apparent reason

Monstrous men are there to give them death 
Stalin knew how to butcher thoroughly
Five million at a time, his own people died
He takes the cake for killings in the millions

But one creature stands alone in mass murder scored
So much for Socialism and history recorded
Who controls the agriculture in the land of China
And the movement that caused a curse on all humanity  

Down to the last dead babies soul left in the soil
“The Great Leap Forward” mass starvation stands alone
Fresh from the womb into the arms of doom forever 
Chairman Mao Zedong is that master, the face of evil ever after

I apologize to everyone that this took so long...I have no excuse but that I had lost my muse and it was a pain to read or write for so long! Please forgive me! Congratulations on a great write!
