Take A Right Into Madness



Take a right into madness.
And do not turn to look to your left.
Accept this decision made.
Without it to accuse anyone else.
Be proud of yourself.
To discover others just as blind.
Gathered together attempting to prevent,
The moving forward of time.
With it hoped they can block to stop,
A fast moving clock.
That has left them behind.
Crazed and out of their unconscious minds.

Take your right and freedoms to believe,
All entitlements...
Are yours to belong exclusively to receive.
Take a right into your madness.
It is yours to have created.
But your quality of life,
To lose its worth and value.
Had not been done by an ethnic diversity,
That has come to leave you crazed.
Only an awakening to the truth,
Did this to you to notice...
Denial to live fictioned to delude.
Had not been included,
In a history you refuse to accept the truth of it!

Go ahead.
Take your right and entitlement to believe,
A way of life to have lived,
Depending on all ethnicities.
Was imagined to allow you to exist.
And in your madness to have as you wish it.
To have one day you awaken to realize,
It was not diversity that came...
To destroy the quality of your life.
This to do had been you.
And the way you portrayed,
An image to idolize yourself...
As gods sent and meant to rule this World.

Congratulations.
Only those unconscious,
Should be proud...
Of the chaos, division and destruction,
To themselves to have created and caused!

'Why aren't you celebrating?
Why the gloom and look of despair?'

'The result of my participation,
Is quite different than what I expected.'

'What did you expect?
More suffering on others,
To observe it witnessed?
The others who warned and insisted,
You would be left crazed.
And out of your foolish mind?
Did they happen to be,
Of a different ethnicity?'

'Well...
Yes.
How did you know that?'

'Knowing to understand,
The steps of a repeated history...
Left to ignore for what it is, leaves.
You must be a fan and student of fiction.
Deluded and subjected,
To High-def TV and booming sound effects.'

'Yes I am.
How did you know that?'

'Just a wild guess.
Nothing more or less.'
