Repost: Satan At The Altar

Satan At The Altar!
Satan At The Altar!!
Satan at the Altar!!!

For centuries;
my fatherland lives comme il faut
in her decorous modesty from vanity and conceit
against many odds unduly to mention
by the worn garments of westoxication -
that foreign do of a culture that defies humanity.

Bad boys of my fatherland;
made headway to appear in an idiot box before the world
and get stupendous rewards
after a sale of what makes man a man.

They say it is reality;
is it not immorality that is real in its real sense,
pleasing the hearts and minds that are soaked in?
no doubt Satan is at the altar!
it sits and preaches paradise in hell -
at the demon's table.

Listen to the beat from the mouth of a soil son;
with heart and mind he detests iniquity,
and immorality when they are celebrated
like a dreadful corner-dance that becomes famous than its singer,
as it is against the norms and practice
of his fatherland,
he dwells,
he dines,
and shines in values
and admirable excellence.
