To Deception's Sweetness

A hypocratic oath

wispers in my ear:

 

"Yes, selflessness to poor folks in all forms,

but only when you can afford it --

no, I am not the voice of greed.

 

Yes, devotion to that beautiful light,

but only when your drapes are drawn --

no, I am not the voice of betrayal."

 

Why not sink your teeth in...Oh!

Dark voice,

if you are not such things,

 

why are these fruits so sickly?
