America's Divine Image (CALL HELP)

Cruelty is a woman's mink coat,
Abuse has the hands of a rapist,
Lies have the tongue of a counterfeit prophet,
Loneliness is a homeless man surrounded by pigeons.


Hate is the face of a dictator,
Ego enjoys clothing stores with mirrors,
Lust is a billionaire beseeching for more money,
Pity is having to vote between two bad choices.
