Infusing Deceit

Hefty doctrines shape the flesh with centuries of arrogance from the thieving classes until every brand wields potential to kill off multitudes of souls asleep, yet no longer dreaming of salvation. The cocktails inside the needle whittle down the natural response, churning fraud from every cell once hearty and willing to fight all threats foreign to the host since instincts get replaced by chemicals from the plantation owners and confidence artists painting pictures of benevolence while stabbing that canvas of life with shards evil in intent, corrupted by privilege taken by force behind those smiles. Wealth attends as a tool to run ramshackle as dividends compile the life force exiled to be shed. Injection, injunction and doctrine conspire across generations to quarry our potential down to hell.
