Tortured Thoughts Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Just to think of the ease,
One feeding an ego on evil misdeeds...
Can alone manipulate a destruction,
Of a place once great...
Into a massive dysfunction.
That creates division, conflict.
And an acceptance of hatred,
Allowed to escalate.

This mindless hypnotic madness,
Done to leave many with tortured thoughts.
For the purpose to please,
One mind diseased that corrupts humanity.
Has to be the doing,
Of those who blindly follow...
A blueprint designed by Lucifer.
And being effectively achieved.

Deceiving the people who participate,
Left to believe their activities...
Will be rewarded.
After completely ruining themselves.
To then hope the devil himself,
Takes them all on a tour through Hell!
