When your moral compass
goes astray
just about anything goes
-come what mayJealousy and pride
become fast friends
anger and unforgiveness
pledge allegiance to the endThe road to destruction
seems paved with vengeance
while the fruits of life
lie rotting in decadence‘Tis a sorry impasse
to lose one’s moral compass
Take heed and beware
lest you succumb to satan’s snare
