Leaders flooded nations with corruption;
religion flaunted faithless purity.
Mass media fed us on deception;
our feet dragged through fetid apathy.
Gentleness and humility thought bad;
violence, lust and power the true path.
Trash talk, sleazy behaviour admired;
mental illness that must be rewired.
Minds strained by the weight of being holy;
spineless sheeple felt forever lonely.
Tortured souls struggled to fight the mighty;
individuals their own Almighty.
Stampeded to their gain without a thought;
everyone an enemy to be taught.
Dishonesty poisoned every race;
human gods were determined to erase.
Whispers from the Fire: More Poems that Burn with Truth…
Beaten and Broken
wrapped me in snug warm wool
Veins of Corruption
feet dragged in the filth of apathy
Whispers from the Altar: More Poems of Faith and Fracture…
On This Day
the mob's cheers and chants battered my ears
Veins of Corruption
feet dragged in the filth of apathy

Gay-Bashed
with homo disgrace they struggle to cure
