Analysis of Transgressions Admitted



Transgressions admitted to permit them.
Done by those devoted to chaos.
And conflict to promote its existence.
Today expect their confessions made,
In these days of unrelenting turmoil.
Is enough to be forgiven.
For the high cost humanity has paid.
With no empathy left,
To erase the suffering and pain.
Inflicted upon them.
As if this to do done is an experiment.
Within months to heal and overcome.

Following behind,
Duping dopes shown to be brain numb.
Witnessed and observed to be,
Mentally incompetent.
Yet giving image to be blemish free.
And glowing naturally.
In the broad daylight of Sun.
To be the 'chosen ones'.
Kissed by the rays of an unseen God.
24 hours and each minute of the day.
Without charading to parade,
Perfection!
Applied.
By an overworked glam squad.
Kept supplied,
To remove the face of reality!
While hidden is every detail of truth.
Knowing this would horrify if revealed!

'These people are nothing more,
Than monsters!'

'I know this and so do you.
However...
What is not known,
Is what it takes to keep...
Their secrets concealed and discreet.
Or...
How much we are paid.
To produce our Las Vegas magic.
That captivates a lost consciousness.
Of the people supporting delusions!'
