Stare into the eyes of the deceiver

Of mendacity, the contriver

Seemingly innocent, harmless and benevolent

Claiming to be trustworthy to a profound extent

Truthfully the sole incarnation of malevolence

Inauthentic, a contradiction personified

Look into the eyes of those you love

Even they may not be like you suppose

Dishonest just like those you despise and oppose

Look into the eyes of those around you

They are not what you suppose

Dishonest, with only hostility left to show

We have devolved

Intellectual discipline left out

Our own gain considered paramount

Ignoring what we will reap through what we sow

For we have devolved

Our reasoning illogical

We are retrograde, hollow and superficial

Whitewashing belligerence with claiming it to impede everything we despise

Mocking the reality, for we depict the foremost role in their violent progressions

Inauthentic, a contradiction personified

Stare into the eyes of your neighbour

And at the reflecting image of a deceiver

Of all mendacity, the contriver

We have all become alike

Smearing our image with false benevolence

To hide our true nature of malevolence

We are unworthy of our existence
