I don’t like religion The kind that stokes the fire of someone’s ego Before it consumes them Burning away their compassion and common sense Until they are nothing but hellfire spewing out of their mouth Fueled by their fear and good intentions Eyes glazed over and parroting their church leaders Whose pulpits are built off of the money of their spiritually starved patrons As they serve deceit on a silver platter A religion that worships a God who is the embodiment of love Should not use terror As their love language
