Dark Secrets

 Dark Secrets       10/15/2020

Mockers jeer

And haters laugh

Shouting with glee

At the prospect of death. 

 

They never apologize

Even when its proved

And they never learn

From all the damage

They caused.

 

Never accountable

And never at fault

Excused of every crime

Every single day

And every single time. 

 

God only knows

All they have done

Buried deep

In the dark. 

 

Hidden away

Where no one can ask

Deleted, forgotten

Bleached and destroyed. 

 

Protected by those

Entrusted to expose

The murderous few

Of wealth and power. 

 

They spin their webs

And spit out lies

Vomiting forth

In the dark of the night. 

 

Their spawn

Pick it up

And state is as truth

Every day the same

Another accusation

And another lie. 

 

Combing through

The papers

They examine men

Rather than crimes

All accusing others

For what they themselves

Have done.

 

Soulless, shameless,

Arrogant, and cruel

Their conscience

Non existent

Shriveled up and dumb.

 

Hating you

And hating me

Everything we ever were

And everything we are. 

 

The ugly

Hate the beautiful

And the evil

Hate the good. 

 

Deranged by jealousy

They hate our very souls

The fact of our faith

And our character of decency. 

 

The better we are

The more that they try

To tear us away

And tear us apart.  

 

Art, architecture, culture

And mores

All of them assaulted

And turned ugly. 

 

Rotted from

The inside out

The destroy the family

And community values

Forbidding all association

Of who we were and are.

 

Robbing every penny

While they enrich themselves

Selling us out

Lock stock and barrel. 

 

Censoring all criticism

And forbidding sunlight

Hiding their horror

And slandering the good. 

 

Dig it up

And drag it out

Every last secret

No matter how dark

And no matter how deep. 

 

Let it all out

And let it all be known

All the way through

And all the way back. 

 

Every last secret

And ever last war

Every single machination

To murder and steal.
