Corrupt righteousness
Acting with omnipotence
Is pure ignorance
Destroying lives without shame
Leaving ruin in its wake

Freedom of speech hurts
When offered with hate in mind.
Pious hypocrites,
You hide behind religion
Twisting the words of your God!
What would Christ have done!
He’d overturn your tables
And dump your self righteous coins
Like the vile money changers in your book
That’s what comes to mind
In the end, who will be judged
You or those you persecute?
Perhaps a look in the mirror is in order.
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
O calloused heart, how for art thou still beating,
Glances cast at thee thou hath repelled.
Taking flight at thy masters pleading,
How couldst thee in good conscience foretell.
Thou art more beautiful than the rose,
Tho thy thorns art no less deadly.
No more couldst I offer to thee my betrothed,
Than to be forthright of mind and steady.
Nay–this was not enough,
Thy blood and soul hast proved tainted.
Coarse is thine heart when passions in the rough,
Dante’s tragedy to my core hath been painted.
Were thou only more gentle of spirit, more tender and kind,
In my true love thou wouldst bath and no truer love wouldst thou find.
