twisted truth seems so wise

deceptive tongues lead astray

foul incantations spewed out

venomous lust for control

lies whispered in susceptible ears

hidden in secret covered by shades

greedy hands touch forbidden pale flesh

quiet tears wiped from pain contorted faces

an archaic sinister scheme

devourers of innocent souls

gullible sheep gathering around

a pack of ravenous wolves

a sanctuary corroded by gloom

befouled desecrated shrines

leading disciples into doom

darkness cast on withered minds

insidious

insidious
