No Flip-floppers are allowed near my Domain…🚫

For your Insincerity is ineffective and oh so lame…😝

You smile in my face,😁 then laugh behind my back...😆

It's as if your cardboard personality came equipped with a built-in, fake laugh track…🤡

👎🏾Sincerity is always the furthest thing from your mind…

✌🏾Better move on elsewhere…🛑➡➡➡

🎊Remember, I am the genuine, divinely-protected, chosen-for-the battle kind…🎊🥊✊🏾

👎🏾You sow deceit everywhere you go… Constantly coiling your slithery tail🐍 around the chosen ones🌟; pure discord you bestow…

In fact,

you speak…

so much deceit…

that even your lies…

have alibis…

👎🏾You cry like a newborn👶🏽 when the center of attention shifts to another…

👎🏾Your jealousy-laced vitriol rises up like a tidal wave🌊 to infect & smother the Hope of others…

Dear Flip-floppers,

Your day of reckoning is finally here…👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

For the divine Creator's karma has just appeared…💪🏾😉

    Great poem, and probably the first one I've read with effective use of emojis throughout 🧐. I liked the balance between what is said aloud and the inner meaning.
