MIND THEFT

Mind theft occurred
It was a kind of stealing
Geneivat da’at
Hebrew for deception

Capturing it for the abuser’s empty self 
Placing it in its own circle of Hell

Then Looking out from poverty
We saw nothing that belonged to us
Where all promise once existed
There was now just an empty husk
