Jehovahs Unwitnessed
Unworthy of the Watchtowers gaze
No gentle guiding dove
A million miles away, was He
The God I chose to love
Abused, my innocence defiled
By those I’m taught to trust
My words rebuked, my soul beguiled
As nails that turn to rust
Told what to read and what to wear
A collective consciousness, well equipped
Unless of course, our rules you break
Then spend your life disfellowshipped
Your pleas, your screams are futile
Your damning claims, remain untrue
For the proof of immorality
Demands the rule of two
A spirit crushed and broken
By the keepers of His Word
A million miles away, it seemed
The Kingdom of The Lord
The ruffled feathers of the flock
The turmoil cuts deep, like a knife
Oh! Elders, pray tell what to do?
Pray more and be a better wife!
The tarnished carpets raised again
In the case of Holly Brewer
Dark secrets, hid behind their walls
Her demons still pursue her
My faith, strong in the making
Only served in blinding me
I stepped outside the Devils grasp
Once more again to see
As Heavens Gates are closed to you
Your world in ruin, your soul laid bare
No friend or family member close
Will pardon, or your dreams will share
Approaching Armageddon
As the Jews, we are Gods chosen
No other shall grace Elysians Halls
Until Hell itself, lies frozen
Can’t you hear it on the wind my friend
As the Horsemen ride our way
Far closer than they’ve ever been
Not a million miles away!

A poem on the behind the scenes everyday life in a 'CULT' by any other name. where there is no crime apparent unless there are two people to witness a missdoing! Otherwise in the eyes of the Jehovah judiciary no crime was committed. When Holly Brewer talked of her plight as a child she was shunned by her peers and her mother was told to pray harder and be a better wife! I wonder how many Jehovahs Witness are told of the case of Holly before during or after joining the Jehovahs . . .
