Poking the scorpion with a stick

He's so real though he's made mistakes
Repenting then repairing
Doing all that it takes

He's a good man, as many would say
Holding himself accountable
For those times he went astray

Setting a good example for his sons
Looking to their dad
Becoming good godly ones

In an alternate universe:

His deeds are covert in cyber space
Lying and cheating
Make his pulse race

Selfishness in thoughts and needs
Blaming others for his pain
Slandering them for his misdeeds

H thinks his sons know nothing of this
As they watch and pray
Then follow in his steps
