Masked Morality - Exposing the Monsters Among the Elites

It churns the pit of my stomach
that monsters who used to hide in caves
are now standing on the world stage
as ruling elites
preaching right and wrong to our faces
while they chew on the flesh of our children
and turn them into their playthings
in the darkest hour of hell.

Monsters that used to hide in caves
are the faces of masked morality…
and we’re still pretending not to see.
