Poetry Post 306

False Idols/True Hope
Don't sacrifice to Moloch, don't sacrifice to Baal
Pagan gods always have and always will fail
Don't be taken in
Seduced to the ultimate sin
You know you will never win
With a god wanting the blood of your children
Praise Jehovah even when others test your dedication
Abraham and Job had faith in the resurrection
When innocents suffer it is not God's will but Satan's
Who plants fear, doubt and hate in the heart of man's
Exercise faith and follow Christ's Way
The redemption of suffering is at Judgment Day

Suburban Death Trap
Welcome to the suburban Death Trap
Where identical houses cover the map
Where you have nothing to do and no one has anything to say
Your future's in the past because tomorrow's just another yesterday
And every job has a name tag and a uniform
And the void of options forces you to conform
Even the slightest deviation makes you a freak
As people watch you walk the street you get a double peek
And the people wonder what you're about to do
Because suburbia has nowhere to go to

Fulfillment
America believes in God and believes itself a Christian nation
It believes it can do anything except make reparation
It believes it can justify genocide and massacre
But it can't spare a few pennies to feed the needy and poor
Well I guess the widow, the orphan, the alien and the oppressed don't have much longer to fear
Because the wars, the famines and the plagues show Armageddon might already be here
