Behold the fervent prayers of the deceived
Eyes shut tight in zealous reverence
They chant their thanks for the bounty that once roamed as a living breathing entity
now served upon their plates in the guise of sustenance.
While indulging in the flesh of the slain
they fail to recognize the true source of providence
for it is not the heavens they should revere
but the creature whose life was sacrificed to sustain theirs
Ignorant to the irony
they offer their devotion
to an unseen force
while the true benefactor lies lifeless before them
Praying in homage to a jewish false prophet
they kneel in reverence to a faith not their own
oblivious to the contradiction
seared into their meaningless souls
Their souls, mere vessels, devoid of essence
Chanting hymns, devoid of any sense
Their faith, a façade they blindly adore
Oblivious to the paradox they embody
