Hypocrites

It's all bullshit, isn't it?Our values and morals
Just plain old bullshit

Men in golden robes
They call themselves the Sangha
And yet, curse and swear
Forgetting the Dhamma

A friend tells me what a bitch another is
Such a cheat, so shameless and I wonder
Where her anger goes as she
Hugs the other and exchanges compliments

The author speaks at a book launch
Of another and says how great the new book is
But once home, safe from the world
He posts on Facebook that the book deserves no shelf space

He talks about how great a human he is; ethics and decency
And he tightens his tie, as if  reminding himself of his other virtues
But then he forgets everything he preaches as he gives his staff so much work
They can't even leave at six

She calls herself a feminist and fights against injustice
She calls men the evil monsters that walk among us
But she forgets the magical word of equality as she keeps quiet
When men are objectified just the way women are
