Theocracy |
Their pious iconography, seductive and sublime |
Artifacts from allegoric myth |
Crucifix, testaments — seemingly benign |
What havoc have they wrought upon this earth |
Stalking, these jackals never cease |
Clawing at our gates |
With nebulous beliefs, apocryphal |
Born from the callow minds of men |
Not resting till they have theocracy in hand |
And Church molesting State |
Their laughable liturgies |
Intelligent design? |
Mortify the blind faithful flock |
Comedies canonical, this spectacle divine |
Mesmerizing millions over naught |
Slowly, they pander their disease |
With secrecy enshrined |
At the table of deceit, the faithful dine |
Born from the callow minds of men |
Not resting till they have theocracy in hand |
And Church molesting State |
To break the secular conduct |
To rule with piety perverse |
While the shit of the State fucking reeks |
Only they could make it even worse |
Yet they stand in fear |
Petrified in the face of science |
Where evidence stands to contradict |
And deny their faith of servility |
Defined, by myth |
It’s a fable that should never burden man |
And the church, with power replete |
Would sanction the very rule of myth over man |
As insidious agents of faith |
Still lost in the ether |
(Amen) |
So we sing the agnostic’s song |
In spirit and mind we govern ourselves |
We need not their catechist codes |
To live out our days, and make our tomorrows |
