Here Comes A Lie

-Here Comes A Lie-
by Keaton Foster



The alter
Of humankind
Unwound
The mess once made
Never quite cleaned
Refuse encased
Glorious the stain
Nothing
Will wash it away
Here comes a lie
A charade of words
Meant to hurt
Right to the gut
Down all will go
Begging for mercy
They’ll be none
Not an ounce
The truth betrayed
Enslaved
By our ways
Burned in the fire
What is right
Such a lost idea
Who can bare it
Swearing no allegiance
I must say
That only those few
Naked to reality know
There is no God
Not one seen
Only one to be believed
And when liars truly unite
It is nothing short of amazing
What they can get done
Worlds have been changed
Molded and crafted
Time and again
Brought up to new heights
Laid back down at their feet
Either way
The end is the same
Such a dangerous game
Continually is it played
Here comes a lie
Take it in
Make it yours
What could I care
More importantly
What could you
Such fools in kind
Receiving
What is being said
Morphing it
Into our own bullshit
A vicious cycle
With no reasonable end
A purpose unintended
From the very get
In the garden of forever
Those first few once stood
They had their chance
To do what was asked
Not what was desired
Such impossible choices
Poisonous to our being
We have never stood
Any significant chance
Everything after that
A band aide upon a wound
That will never really heal
Here comes a lie
What should you expect
Nothing in the end
Dare I confess to you
My misspoken friends
Simply put that is it…
