Welcome To the Fold

The homeless slept out in the cold
Because all the preachers loved gold
Until they could see
Its better to be
Pocketing large banknotes that fold

The hypocrisy of some churches is truly staggering - no surprise they support Trump, the most amoral souless choice!

Solid gold replicas of popes fingers, shrines, crosses, domes, and statues signify complete disregard for the sacrifices made by the faithful! Aloha! Rico
