Best Hypocritical Poems


Premium Member The Hypocritical Goat

Not to be taken lightly, I burnt all my clothes 
Cut the tattoos off my back, tore pins from my nose 
Foraged for food particles, where wild beasts reposed
Lapped water vapour off thorns, when the thirst arose 

My identity gone, I herded mountain goats 
Built a makeshift altar, one by one, slit their throats 
Looking to the heavens, chanting primeval quotes 
Tell me what to do, this sacrifice I devote 

But silence returned, I knew nothing else mattered 
The goats now all dead, my hands blooded and spattered 
A local tribe watched on, their souls not so shattered 
Idolised me, then to the four winds they scattered 

After two score and ten, they returned unforetold 
Carrying symbols, textbooks, diamonds, and gold 
Smiling in joy, I asked what stories they behold 
All wrote versions of my life in books, but mistold 

Some had butchered nations, said it was in my name 
Others brainwashed little children, feeling no shame 
The rest knocked on doors, telling lies they heal the lame
Scamming billions of sesterces, their one true aim

I condemned the lies, but was a very bad call
They burst into laughter, and pointed to their haul
Just then everything made sense, as I do recall 
Killing goats made me, the biggest scapegoat of all

Hypocritical Piety

Pious passion with pearl like luster
Panoply paint in deviant cluster
Projecting devout sacred morals
Wearing crowns of thorny laurels

Preaching forth with self righteous scorn
Scrawled on parchment fully worn
Those pagan heathens they perceive
Who don’t condone what they believe

Perplexed by such pathetic woes
Least the truth be so exposed
A patchwork of divine confusion
Unfounded values in perfusion

Peripheral motives, hidden lies
Unhallowed spirits in holy guise
Hypocrites with tarnished goals
Believing they’re the chosen souls

Hypocritical Humanity

Hypocritical, unethical, selfish, and unlearned
        Under developed use of our overstated minds
           Militant masochists tend to rule this world
              Antagonistic especially towards our own people
                 Narcissistic insight concerning the global scale
                    Intelligence is wasted instead of being shared
                       Tragedy encompasses us forever the witch hunt
                          Yesterday's life lessons are learned nowhere

Hypocritical

Here I am,
You are here as well, a 
Place where most people are. 
Of course they say they aren't here. 
Cuz they practice what they  preach,
Right? No they don't. 
I have discovered
That most people are hypocrites. 
I have learned,
Children learn it from their parents, 
And they carry onward in life. 
Lying to themselves and everyone else.

Hypocritical Politicians

Hypocritical Politicians

One cannot but agree about diplomacy being all hypocrisy...
Those who double talk and sugar coat their  wordings...
Are actually buying for time for double dealing...
Explains perfectly why politicians are experts at wheeling and dealings...
They lean to the left, they lean to the right...
They are astute, with shrewd timing to survive alright....
Just recall the fiasco over 1MDB, nothing drastic done to do things right....
All we get, you and I and just about everybody else...
Heightened costs of living, GST and multibillion debts ....
Boo hoo hoo....
The politicians with their double talk....
Confuse and sold to us  all the poor sods.....
GST 6% is infinitely better that service tax at 10%...
2 years down the road, we are all poorer instead...
Salaried workers take on extra low pay jobs....
Just to maintain regular lifestyles as befitting their lots...
Now to rub it in, some wise cracking minister...
Accuses able bodied Msians for not being diligent enough...
The crux of the problem is plain to see....
There has not been a reasonable rise in salaries....
To keep pace with the drastic price increases in basic necessities...
And here is a minister putting his foot on his mouth...
Asking all suffering Msians to work even harder to the bone....
Hohoho....

Premium Member Quit Being Hyper Hypocritical About Freedom

Stop it! Quit being hypocritical about freedom
What type or what kind that you are talking about?
Be serious! Keep on talking about freedom
Until you drive me to boredom
Until I am strong enough to eat a live trout
Keep on yelling freedom, freedom
Until you lose your kingdom
In Galatians 5: 1,13-15: we found these words, not in error
"You shall love as yourself your neighbor"
"But through love become slaves to one another"
"If, however, you bite and devour one another,
Take care that you are not consumed by one another"
Go read the Bible yourselves, ‘because we are free'
We are brothers and sisters, we should love one another
Yes, Christ died for our freedom, for our liberty
We want freedom in America
We want freedom in Cuba
We want freedom in Columbia
We want freedom in Haiti
Which is poor because of exploitation
Corruption, violence, hatred, pollution
Lies, extortion, racism, theft, distortion
Misery, slavery, crimes and discrimination
Stop, stop being hypocritical about freedom
Let's finish elaborating and talking about freedom
Before alluding to or commenting on democracy
Which is more twisted, complex, convoluted or mazy
Big brother is supposed to protect the little one
In this world, we should fight for freedom for everyone
For the rich, the poor, the underprivileged and the elderly
The strong must protect the weak one. Oh! Miss Liberty
Stands for something noble and divine for all
"For freedom Christ has set us free", so we can walk tall
So we can think freely
So we can wink freely
So we can talk freely
So we can walk freely
So we can laugh freely
So we can clap freely
So we can write freely
So we can chat freely
While respecting each other
And protecting one another
Oh! Freedom, Freedom. Too many humans have senselessly
And falsely die in your name. Oh! Freedom. Oh! Liberty.

Hypocritical

Are we superior? indignation
In false prophets invest  security
We mix our morals with resignation
Appease elders, miming our charity
Speaking these vows with mute celebration
Sacrifice the pig, though we are the ham
Then dining upon His sheep's poverty
Wear white frocks red with sacrificial lamb
Babes may rejoice with new found purity
Sin is not a prize won with salvation

This was supposed to be a Decain but I sort of messed up the rhyme scheme. Not religious 
I just thought it was an interesting subject, that is not limited to the religious....

Hypocritical Souls

"This is the final curtain call, when the verdict falls, revenge is best served raw, so that's what they serve to y'all, in a church full of disciples becoming rivals, who follow everything but the Bible...act a different way every other day except that one day....Sunday.....some preachers know they be leeching, instead of teaching...preaching God's word but in all reality they're their own hidden demon, the church is where you lift each one up, not break each one down, and pull each brother up, and not let another drown, turn your neighbors frown upside down into a smile....that's what it's all about, real praise doesn't equal going to church everyday, real praise equals to praying by yourself so that God can bless you in everyway, so that you and your loved ones can strut through those pearly gates, and shower this world with grace, things are never as they once were....but we must still be fulfilled with love, court is in session but who has any room to judge?"

The Hypocritical Philanthropist

Hypocrisy in philanthropy,
is the theme for tonight. 
A reoccurring cadency,
in a false malevolent light.

Hypocritical Eyes

Who are you
Question asks daily,  
 Some people want to know
More about you, 

You look so meager in their bogus eyes, 
You don't possess what they have 
But your presence  continue 
giving them sleepless night. 
Hating you due to 
   What you don't see
           "Huuh!"

They are copying everything you do 
And continue to ask themselves 
Who does  he " she" think he " she"  is? 
 "Heeh! Gloomy ... 
In your hypocritical eyes"

Your  secret identity 
                          terrify them
                            daily 
How could they  be 
  if you had what  they have? 
Yooh! they  could throw themselves 
in their bins and septic tanks. 
  " Death could be their daily songs" 

You are gifted,
  Just be greatful to God,
 for  His gifts in you, 
      Seen and known by many people.

The Hypocritical Cop

The Hypocritical Cop

By Elton Camp

The cop stalked indignantly to the car
“Now just who do you think you are!”

“I saw you daring to send a text.
For a ticket and fine, you’re next.”

“Safety is the most important concern.
When, good sense, will you ever learn!”

“For there is no excuse good enough
To be doing such dangerous stuff.”

He then drove away and didn’t stop
As he keyed into his cruiser laptop

Used radio, radar and dash camera too
His eyes off the road these things to do

From his sacred mission he’ll not swerve
He’ll piously recite “To protect and serve”

(I am opposed to texting while driving because
 it is extremely dangerous.  This is just a humor
 poem.)
