Jul 2020
I knew I lied to bury a lot of rivals
Thinking I’ll win the battle, earning a medal
Here I sit in the ****** **** of a **** rebel.

I heretofore lived maligning others,
out of which I traded my conscience,
to be in the good books of people.

I plopped the truth to go unopposed
And was indefatigably living in people’s fantasies,
until hell batted me a somber smile.

That darkened fire got me petrified
Has my tomorrow been ensnared?
**** me, if I didn’t seek salvation.
