Poetic verse about Religious cults & the effects on society as well as the individual
We are all seeking the answers to life's eternal questions
In today's world of "Doomsday prophecies",
And commercialized "Second comings"
"Faith", to this generation, means more as a word than it does as conviction
Those who blindly follow the preachings of false prophets
Or, worship shiny  "made in China" idols
Are easily manipulated like the proverbial "lambs to the slaughter"
Those the flock so blindly follow
Are none other than the "wolves in sheep's clothing"
These days faith falls from lips with a "sales pitch" delivery
Truth be told, when asked in conversation, I find more often than not
People are unable to explain what they proclaim to believe
One thing is certain, when the "end of days" approaches
Death will be... unexpected 
There's no guarantees our questions will be answered
If, in fact, Heaven and Hell truly do exist     
Then, all those who claim to be one of the righteous
Shall be cast down to tip the scales of judgment
Justifiably so...
Condemning their soul to eternal damnation
