Pharisees
The churches are filled with hypocrites
Everything they are is against what they believe
What they built their lives on
Love is what makes us human
And yet they believe that I’m going to hell
All of their conversations are meaningless
We can talk about politics and history
But the wheel continues to turn
They’ll never do something to stop it
In fact, they are who keeps it turning
They flirt with the line of unacceptable
Going just up to the edge of it
Then retreating to ease their conscious
They justify their choices
And condemn my identity
They yell to debate the nuances of theology
And shut their mouths when lives are on the line
Silence is violence, even from the saved

“Silence is violence, even from the saved”
Perfect last line!
