Monster

Fear not what your people speak of you,
because I know you don't care.
Fear not what judgements the West rains upon you,
because you know they don't dare.
Fear the monster you've become,
and beware,
for the truth, its pleading and crying
you cannot bear,
choosing to believe instead 
the lies you fervently declare.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
