Two Faced

When their heart holds hatred
but their lips speak only love
the words are a lie
the heart is their truth
when the preachers commit crimes
and pay lip service to virtue
the walls begin to crumble
and the veneer cracks
beware the words that sing salvation
and cast others to hell
for mere existence
the false prophet is persuasive
cloaked in the colors of faith – Caroline A. Slee
