Lodestone

The ugliness of loathing
Tugs at the corner of your lips

Marring the fragile beauty
Of one blessed

Rules

Rules to be written

Obeyed

Such is your life

Pious
Righteous

Compromised

You abhor my ignorance
My failure to recognise your God
His rules
The morals of your society

I remain steadfast
Honest to my convictions
My independence
Sanctifying the honesty of my life

So

You war against me
Casting aspersions
Accusations

Your Jihad misfires
Weapons blunted by hypocrisy

Yet still you send your hordes

They fail

They crash upon me

Me

The rock you break yourselves against
