Deep in the Shadows

Within the shadows of darkened lanes and alleys, 

There i dwell hidden from sight ,sounds and smell, 

Humankind knows me not walk away as if they are shot, 

My eyes see what goes on kicking a homeless man to death, 

Name calling those who dare to live as they want to, 

Just because differences seem

Self-Righteous

Luke 14:11 (KJV) “For whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.”

Meekness reveals to me assurance that I’m wrong
When I don’t let go of grievances, 
When I let bitterness distract me from loving,
When I remember only those things that discouraged,
When my memories are filled with contempt
When my recollections are

A Self Righteous Believer

every year on the day of my birth
you showed what your friendship was worth 
making every effort to swerve and avert 
being present because something occured 
always last minute and out of your hands 
a need to meet the demand and abandon 
blagging bad like a selfish mad man 
then your birthday comes like a

Self-Righteous Do-Gooders

Self-righteous do-gooders, so they believe, preaching the Word while minds they deceive,

Casting their ballots for racist, lying, cheats, shelving morality for them to be the lead,

Satisfied preying on the innocent and cleansing the impure, while claiming their prayers will sanctify and hold them secure,

Women stay passive, men will lead and fight, qualm their goody-two shoed

Self Righteous

You point your finger
You laugh at our shame
You boast of your body
and lack judgment of fame

You beg for attention
And call it dimension
You cry for acknowledgement
And welcome any argument

You blame everyone but yourself
We are all wicked,
We are all cruel,
You fail to face humility
and yet, we are the fool

What a lonely life you lead
When you’re always right

Self-Righteous Soliloquy


I’m very proud of my self-righteous stripes,
I’ve given more alms than you have my whole life
My self-flaggelations is more painful than anybody’s are
	I’m sure that in heaven, 
my name is neon blinking on the brightest star 
My wool is so much whiter than yours,
my spiritual requests goes higher towards heaven
off the faith prayer springboard
I’m just

Self Righteous Suicide

A date with death your final breath
One last gasp you try to grasp

Your time has come 
This isn’t for fun

The possibility there is no heaven
A risky gamble, maybe no lucky sevens

You should have no adoring pride
 In your self-righteous suicide

You could be lost forever eternal
An unknown soul, an empty journal

Self Righteous Indignation

Be careful daughter of Satan.....
That you do not declare war 
on the one true God.
For He will cast you out 
as was your father.
The mountains echoing his pleas
into the farthest regions of the cosmos.
The one true God, 
the God of love, does no wrong.
His word is law and everlasting.
Recorded ages before, in prophesy, 
yet born
