Hypocrite

When ugly hypocrites join hands

Innocent people lose their hope

They are menaced by the bands

They seek divine help to cope


But divine help is not that easy

People suffer from fear and stress

Hypocrites howl to keep them busy

Their normal lives change to mess


The brave hearts that can endure

The nasty tricks of horrid devils

Win at last and become secure

From the lethal offense of evils


We need courage to fight the hypocrites


Patience is extra power for their treats

Hypocrites are two-faced or many faced. They stand on no moral ground but their egos and whims. They prey on others to make them fools and victims. They join hands with the evil ones and plot socially, politically and gossipy against others. No good comes out of them and their schemes. An excellent subject you have tackled here dear poet with excellence of your pen...:).....

Thank you dear friend for the heart warming review.
You have portrayed the devilish hypocrites perfectly.
I am very glad that you stopped by and contributed such a precious review on the piece.

Political hypocriscy wreaks havoc with people's lives - and divine help is not easy - or rather situation has to get to a point of questinioning so called tolerance of intolerance.

[zainul]

I am very glad that you analysed the situation so vividly.
Thank you for stopping by.

A sensitive matter sensitively portrayed.

sounds like the leaders in my country. Heroes, that's what they pretend to be when they come flying down with their tempting promises and fake empathy. And us, in our desperate hours we believe them, boy do we believe them! they always have that 'CONFUSE THEM' then 'CONVINCE THEM' tactic that they use to mess things up so they can pretend to play hero and fix everything only for us to realize that in the end it was all a show. And we had blindly played along.
Nice poem sir, very relatable

[zainul]

thank you and Likewise :)

I love the line, "But divine help is not that easy." We humans seek the power of gods to solve our problems when so many could be solved by simply not being hypocritical and judgmental. An accurate observation.

[zainul]

Thank you Megan for the wonderful review.

[Levi Levin]

Nice poem:) There are many hypocrites indeed and if not by grace we could all be one of them. To win this victory we strive to overcome evil deeds with good. A struggle it is but we can overcome. Great writing!

[zainul]

Thank you for the thoughtful and pragmatic review.
I feel very inspired to know that we can overcome.

[K. Sikes]

Hypocrites are a nasty little bunch. I love that you decided to center-align this; it looks pretty. I'm brand new here and trying to figure out how Writers Cafe works. I'm so used to Wattpad.

[zainul]

Thank you for the inspiration.
I like to read and review some of your writings in this site.
Please post a few here too.

Thank you dear friend for adding the priceless words,"Can't allow the hypocrites to control our world."

[Coyote Poetry]

You are welcome. I enjoy your words and thoughts.

[SM Davis]

The lethal offense of evils. Indeed. I like the raw "feel" this poem has to it. I appreciate the simplicity of the font that lends itself to embracing the words. Your message is simple but strong. Nicely done. 100 daisies.

[zainul]

The best gift I have ever received for writing a poem.Gift of 100 daisies glorified me to the infinity.
Thank you SM Davis for the wonderful review and priceless gift.

[Rick Puetter]

Ugh! WC swallowed my review. Okay, try again.

Nicely penned. Much enjoyed.

I don't think hypocrites can be fought directly. The best course is to avoid being one yourself and to help other not to be a hypocrite. By their very natures, hypocrites are expert at lying to themselves. They can't even be true to what they espouse are their own beliefs. If they can't do that, how are they going to listen to you? Frankly, they exhaust me and I need all my energy to avoid being one myself, so I usually walk away. It's not worth it.

Very best regards,

Rick
