MR. MEPHISTOPHOLE

by brent-kincaid

You’re worried god will be offended That I will fall in love the wrong way, But won’t have any problem with The children you let starve today? You look so carefully into my life And claim it’s all about morality Then lock scared children in cages While you brag about your decency. You are what you say you hate You don’t have what you claim; You don’t have an honest bone, Idea, or principle to your name. You have carefully been fed your lines; You make specious, wafer thin excuses, You blame good people for your lies, For your own past and present abuses. If there is a god in heaven looking on You are headed for your self-described hell. But worry not, you’ll have lots of company Among the devils you have supported so well. You are what you say you hate You don’t have what you claim; You don’t have an honest bone, Idea, or principle to your name. Brent Kincaid 5/9/2019
