The Terrible

How vicious of you

To wear a mask Unseen

A mistaken copy of royalty

 


You speak of falseness, your plastic eyes 

You say what you are, but no longer am I blind

 

You are ROTTEN, a parasite within the flock 

You spread your poison like cancer 

You speak lies that seep into the earth

You have a heart choked with rot, melting into ash

 


You are a SICKNESS, a disease Uncontained 

You suck the life out of the needy

You weaken those who care 

You suffocate the strong 

You have a mind which pollutes the air

 


You are a SNAKE, slinking around in the dirt

You prey on the innocent, drinking them up like water

You take advantage of the fools 

You lead the smart right to slaughter 

 


The terrible you are

I hope one day you learn

The pain that you’ve caused

Before it’s time for you to burn
