Dazed Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Known!
Rehashed,
And fed in tiny bites...
A snake may shed its skin,
But a demon does not spread light
On initiating deeds to do those 'in'
Who 'see'
These demons
Before their actions begin!

Dipped and sugarcoated to suit,
In recruiting style.
Attracting the unconscious
With sinful deception
And sparkling bright smiles...
Known!

Rehashed,
And fed in tiny bites.
Exciting the hopes of those dazed!
With promises they are being led,
To a sanctuary where they are bled...
Instead.
And left dazed and forgotten.
