Hypocritical Piety

Pious passion with pearl like luster Panoply paint in deviant cluster Projecting devout sacred morals Wearing crowns of thorny laurels Preaching forth with self righteous scorn Scrawled on parchment fully worn Those pagan heathens they perceive Who don’t condone what they believe Perplexed by such pathetic woes Least the truth be so exposed A patchwork of divine confusion Unfounded values in perfusion Peripheral motives, hidden lies Unhallowed spirits in holy guise Hypocrites with tarnished goals Believing they’re the chosen souls
