Products of a Manipulating Salesmanship

You may not like to hear this...
But your entire existence,
Has been based upon feeding your greed.
Every belief you have,
Stumbles when confronted by truth!
And the absence of it from your teachings.

To say you have been led astray,
Would be like leading someone to light...
Who has been taught,
That the brightness of it will cause them danger!
And the less it reflects upon them,
Will keep them protected!

And yet,
Even though the opposite has been proven,
Many will keep themselves hidden in darkness.
With a symbolized vanity...
That keeps them addicted to acts of sin and fear.
Products of a manipulating salesmanship!
