Your disingenuous dialectic
spells my downfall -
its barbarous intent,
devoid of true essence,
deranges all belief.
A liar, you,
a player who
sees only that
of self-gratification.

Your disingenuous dialectic
leads to heartache -
so captivated am I,
so blinded by avarice,
my search for piety is ended.
A liar, I,
to myself,
led astray by my need
for fortification.
