funny how man picks
and chooses
definition
lackluster
set in granite
proud headstone
hauled upon shoulders
of those who need
controlling
the powers speak in
right-wrong-black-white
dictators color creativity
dissenters will be deemed
cliche
man sets himself in
godmode
hacked in videogame graphics
and pomp
a true God shows His mercy
idols just throw stones.
