Who is the father of the son of man,
And to what has he given birth?
A thousand little lies to pave the way
Leading to what we have become.

Building nation states,
Theocracies by extension of strength.
Bow to the powers that be,
Be they that of The Crown or of The Holy See.

The threat of indoctrination
Is the most dangerous of them all.

Brace for what comes next
From the military-industrial complex.
A modern day crusade.
These colors don’t run, but they do tend to fade.

A line too thin to measure
Between the two hands on our throats,
The greater and the lesser
Of the devils we know.

Enough of the cowards
Enough of the thieves
Enough of the tyrants
There is no reprieve.
