[ Because Science ]

Heart of Babel

Even science can't escape it

The cults that wane, subliminal

That statement, "Because science"

The absence of thinking critical

Just another damning faith

For a different type of imbecile

A religion corrupting facts

To conjuring up the mythical

 

No focus on the factual

Time to hypnotize

Agenda of the politic

With misinforming lies

Fear will draw submission

The source of their demise

Power ever increasing

To an evil enterprise

 

Never questioning their masters

That form all their opinions

Indoctrinated thoroughly

The apex of religion

A cult of personality

A devoted coalition

All parroting the edict

Like the cooing of a pigeon

 

A flock in mind, incapable

To contemplate a thought

Outside of their religion

The impressions they were taught

Never gaining any knowledge

Simply memorized the blot

Then propagating endlessly

With the evidence of naught

 

The men behind the curtain

Celebrity status

Systems and institutions

Cultivated on campus

All appealing entertainment

A distraction from madness

Keep the veil upon their eyes

Until all wonder has vanished

 

And at that moment they are owned

They are no longer human

Just a part of a machine

That wants power and ruin

To never question the program

Is to submit to delusion

And to enact of that faith

Is but pure prostitution

 

But while they live in blindness

In the confinement of systems

There are some who stand out

And have refused to be victims

They won't jeopardize truth

To an imperial dictum

Instead they'll interrogate proof

And expand in their wisdom

 

See when it comes to religion

There is nothing that's sacred

And no matter how absurd

It will populate patrons

So you must make a choice in life

Will you allow it to be wasted

Or will you stand against the cult

Eyes open, and awakened

    Everything is a religion, yes. We give our power away too easily. Great poem

    'That statement, "Because science"

    (its just so demoralising
    almost like we need a 'Voltaire'
    in every generation,
    to continually reassert the benefits
    of enlightening ourselves
    by simply, questioning
    their wafer thin: reasoning...)
    thanks for sharing, such a timely
    and important write, dear poet!
    and finally, in the words of logic's
    champion elect himself, Voltaire:
    'Those who can make you believe absurdities
    can make you commit atrocities.'
    'judge of a *person by their questions
    rather than by their answers.'

      You are welcome, and I appreciate this comment. It would definitely benefit the world with we could manage to instill these practices throughout societies.
