Hypochristians
and their victims
How do you comfort someone
when they've been removed from
a family to honor someone's lies
as gospel truth?
Do you turn your back ,
calling over your shoulder
some scripture prescription
hoarding all of your human compassion
for those who meet your standard
of appropriately loving the lord--
it's your place to judge
who deserves
love
forgiveness
humanity.
Fuck off with your hypocritcal,
self-aggrandizing
"Christianity"
that allows you
to condemn suffering
as deserved
without even
hearing the whole story.
That replica around
your neck
carries less weight
than the lumber
putting splinters
in my back.
