Never Trust Those With Lust

he has love for lust
be leery of him we must
who can never trust

saw burst after burst
troops all around are dispersed
we surely are cursed

what we always dread
having bad dreams in our bed
of wounded who bled

news we do not need
from all sin want to be freed
overcome all greed

while we were waiting
there are those we are hating
kill contemplating

are agitated
a battle consummated
am humiliated
