Ill-Will of Lies
Palpitating breath of Greed
Masks the Voice of Conscience
When one seeks to be redeemed
Unveils what was tucked away
Hidden until required
Unmasked something different
Once neglected hastily
Loses conscience itself
Loathes being Provoked
Returns at a great price
Tragedy of what it was masked over
Feeds on the ill-will of lies
