God And The Temple of Mind Control

the foaming priest
hiding his sinful erection
as he preaches the word of god

his words are empty
mirroring his corrupt heart

his flock swallow
his every word
like dependent junkies
feasting upon the curse
which hits with force
and deletes remorse

our father who art
a mind control trigger
a weapon of mass control
a way to erase
the free thinking soul

our father who art
a mind control trigger

Nicely done!

Gives one cause to think of the many cruel and hypocrital atrocities that are perpetrated on God's people by His own representatives!

Good write Lenny

Reminds us that corruption is everywhere. Religion is not exempt from it, nor governments. Respectfully, Rett: "Did you ever wonder if the politicians what want to ban guns went hunting with Dick Cheney?" Rett: 2008

Take the Catholic Church for example. In my mind, they break two commandments right off the bat... 'Thou shalt not kill' -> Crusades. 'Thou shalt not have idols above me' -> Displays of crucifix, Mary, etc. Interesting write, my friend! ~Jess K. ---------------------------------------------------- - "If the S.W.A.T team breaks down your door, do they have to replace it later?" - "If you don't pay your exorcist, do you get repossessed?"
