The Ice Clan

The clan of Icemen wear their mask
covering their faces while they attach
They try to cover their guilt and shame
But in the house of God that shame remains
In westerns a mask was proof of a robber
Hiding their identity to avoid their slaughter
Zorro wore a mask and The Lone Ranger too
But no one ask the question what their mask do
what kind of law protects bank robbers and Jessy James
Since when did the sheriff had to hide his name
An officer of the law has a certain fame
With that fame comes attached a proud name
Nothing like The Untouchables or the O K Coral
But something hidden hiding their moral
Pharisees and Sadducees of our own day
Chasing Gods disciples away yes away
One can't help but wonder 
What will happens to their souls
After finding out that to Satan they were sold

I agree, John, sometimes there is wrong where there should be right. God will get it all straightened out one day. I try to do what is right but sometimes I am like Paul in the Bible what I want to do I do not and what I don't want to do I do. Thanks for sharing this work with us. Sara K

It’s very sad what is happening in the USA.

Oh John, I really don't think they care ! They may have taken their moral fabric, using the fibers to make a scheming scamming quilt ? Wishing the best to you!
