Hypocrites

Quick to mount their soapbox
     Wailing about this and that
Throwing poison darts at so and so
   When they also wear the mask
   Of those they're railing against
  A paragon of virtue, aren't they?


It really gets me going Poetry Contest

think we can all relate in all aspects of life and sadly I've seen such hypocrisy on the site, such a shame people can't be truthful and have to lie to make them into something they are not:-( hugs jan xx
