Which Matters People



those who see you different
shall make you strange
they will test your endorse
they will stand as if they
were in heaven
and you are in hell
they will abandon you
and make jokes of you
they will speak as saints to make you sin
they will work harder against you
than for you
they will conspire to
sameness
with beliefs that on someone
same can understand
in this togetherness they
will curse each of your beginnings
to bring end to
your resurgence
what window opens to allow you to breath
who shall you find
to comfort and either hubandate of wifify
with you
they shall speak you transgression first to label you
and cause you grief as they
gain
they will thank there lord as he is your satan
and worship Satan in your face
but have you worshiped there Satan
and stood before them same as they you
what speaks people in lieu of you
that they must speak such before you
they chose your enemy
to wash the brains of stranger
they draw lines
and dare you to cross
to put you both in danger
who are we not to
settle each and every score
make peace to make new friends
might your restoration then
be restored.
