It’s a new Sunday
And all are up, most do pray
The church laughs, cries and bleeds
For the visitors it is yet to receive
II
The first classes are those with God in hearts
They come subdued, dressed like parcels
That will take years of hundred to unwrap
Their faces spelling doom
Because their flowers see no sun to bloom
A worship song makes them gloom
As they cry to touch
III
The second classes
Go with needed glasses
Even their class is also in classes
There are men of passions
Who enter the church to get bed actions
There are women of needs
Who enter to possess
There are women of testing
Who aim to twist the minds of the preachers
And the choirmasters, who dreads the tension
Between their ploughers
Funny, how they all call on God
And pretentiously hate on Satan
IV
There are the show givers
Who enter the mouth of the church
To feed its hall with jealousy
An expensive watch
A trouser to watch
A shirt to love
And the list goes on
What is with the huge offering?
Then the females show
Dressed like peacocks
Fanning themselves like worms wallowing in defecation
Stepping like beings with no asses
Teasing Togo dressers
Hurting ghetto livers with their countenance of bliss
Funny how they all call on God
And pretentiously hate on Satan
V
All these people
Overshadow the church’s needs
Those it needs to see
Are never seen
As its head is filled with showmanship
Of the absurd kind
Church, you’ve suffered
Hoarding many prostitutes
Seeing many gamblers
With stooged hands of needs clapping incessantly
As jealous mouths show white and yellow
Sometimes green chairs in hopes of impressing
Those intended to have some golden seats
And mostly the unritualled churches stand dilapidated
With its stomach painfully evaded

That’s the problem with “Church” today. It has become a big social gathering instead of the House of God. Most are propelled by greed. Offerings for everything. None of this money seems to go back into the community rather it goes into the preachers hands so he can buy expensive cars and fancy clothes. They get into the pulpit having the nerve to throw stones at people who might have different sexual orientations but many ministers are committing adultery and sleeping with the women in the church. Also the women are like strutting peacocks trying to get the Pastor’s, Bishops or Elders eye so they can be the next “First Lady!!” Who are these men to call out God’s creation as sinners. Who made them judge, jury and executioner? Nobody has the right to cosign another person to hell. Jesus accepts all people. There is no hate in God. No wonder church attendance is falling down. Those with open eyes see the hypocrites and go the other way.
