Uncovering Machination

We walked into their lands, with birds of peace flying over our heads. Branches of olives, bread and wine. Music playing cheerfully, singers singing and the kids are playing. Neighbors and friends we called them, brothers. Lets dwell together, let's coexist and unite. We opened our arms open wide, we drew a big smile on our faces, presented our best gifts. But..

A dagger for a gift, a scorpion for a bird, a sword for an olive branch.

O you treacherous waters, you deceptive ivy! You lift up your stature leaning on the mighty and proclaim glory for your twisted ways! O ivy of gloom and mugginess. Green yet sickens him who rests underneath your shadows. Your stink have reached your neighbors and your notoriety have been fixed to your roots.

The Eyes of the Lord is upon the actions of man, He judges, and avenges. We lift our cause to Him, and in His courts we await justice. Surely He will deliver us and swiftly.
