Preach

This poem may offend some people. i do not apologize

Preach
spread the wonder of your words to their misguided ears
make a speech
a speech to soothe them, alleviate their fears 
tell them of the safety they shall feel in your arms
win them over with your guile 

with your devilish charms

preach
spread the words god never spoke
speak of evil and what it invokes
name your blessed lamb
find your cursed goat
lock them up in cages
sit on your throne and gloat
And You Preach
Of your divine business
in the business of others
Collect their money in trays
Your crooked business costs it covers
in softer words you say to us you will bribe the cards that choose
Send us to heaven with the winners
not to hell unless we lose

preach to your flock
you crooked staff you hook and laugh
hooked round the throat of all the stray sheep
a salesman, a master of your craft
you sell them salvation
sell it to them in cans
the meanings lost in translation
your god's on webcam
