Beasts In The Field
These people create tests
Scenarios
Set ups
Simulations
Experiments
Like I'm their lab rat
They get angry and throw tantrums
When I don't comply
As if I must
What are these people
They don't move like humans
They don't think like people
They don't behave the way a person does
Closer to an animal they are
A beast
What are they exactly
Where do they come from
The preying people
Who should pray
But don't
Instead they complain
That people won't submit
Weird
How do they get this way
They don't care
They never have
They surround themselves
With people who are the same
They mirror themselves
With their own sickness
They go to any lengths
To get their way
They do as they please
Regardless of consequences
Then are shocked
By outcomes
When held to accountability
Sick
These beasts need an exorcist
Resist them enough
They flee
Like their father the devil
They can't remain where light is
