POETRY OF CONSCIOUSNESS: "SALVATION" BY MYLES

Why can't a sheep camouflage, camouflage to be a wolf?
Could it be out of foolishness, or maybe ignorance?
It gets feed on, yet it doesn't attempt to flea!
It has eyes, yet it follows blindly.

I'm in the wander forest, lost in the woods,
I feel like I've ridden longer on earth, it should halt for me to alight,
I thought the world had nine wonders, so there more to be seen,
Cults becoming churches, cultists hide in salvation.

Are you Jesus to fast, fast for forty days en nights?
Are you planning to save the world, that's by dying for it?
Why satisfy demons with your blood, yet you can save a life with it?
This earth is doomed, I never meant doom the insecticide!

Carry not the holy cross, a saint you're not,
Wear not a cloak, you're staining it's purity,
Carry Bible not, since you're distorting it's content,
Don't hide in salvation, since the earthly riches have consumed you!

MYLISTIC MASTER PEN 
-Kenya

The poet persona leaks the hypocrisy of Christians who flaunt the Bible and his conventions publicly but do otherwise when they feel no one sees them.
