Before We Allowed

Before We Allowed

The frightening love of a god to arise
How pathetic and small it makes mankind in these eyes
In all these eons has humankind stepped so short
That it is dominated by fear and irrational snorts

The hated mind that faith and mysticism fear
The mind that courage, freedom and reason reveres
That sadness when the bright are hated for being bright
Belief fearing the illumination of the mind being right

Mankind’s frozen fear of the blind base abyss
It’s sickening horror of eternity, fear of the mortal truss
Sanctification of the irrational attached to the rational
This the greatest sin against ourselves, debasing the moral

Look back to see when we were wild, wanton and free
Before we allowed fear to breathe and gave government the key
There was a time of burgeoning liberty, in the nineteenth century
Alas, ‘twas never raised to the status of a faith and now is in purgatory
