Fig Leaf
FIG LEAF
Coat of skin for fig leaf.
Burying yourself under
fig leaves.
Yet you flash us
With a toothless smile.
But its enshrouded parts
I see.
When the Almighty
Pulls the plug of mercy
And spill the beans of
curse,
You now bury your act
Under your pillow of rest
And face the running
storm.
The best for bane,
A friend for fiend.
Coat of skin for fig
leaves:
Your evil choices.
Yet you turn blind eyes
on your choices
And continue in your act
Leading you to the fiery
pit.
