They say they’re this,
They say they’re that,
But lies they tell,
And that’s a fact.

Manipulate
The people, too,
And twist the truth,
‘tis nothing new.

Control’s their thing,
What they desire,
The hypocrites,
Truth not require.

Embellish truth,
Or simplify,
But truth be told
They do deny.

For they are devils
In disguise,
Who masquerade,
Walk in their pride.

Their goal now is
To folks deceive,
In hopes the lies
They now believe.

So, watch for them.
Do not be fooled.
Don’t see the hook
Which you then pull.

But discipline
Yourself to pray
For wisdom to
Spot who betrays.
