Pietá

Pietá

Do I seek an awakened acquaintance?

A mob of the blind walk for the chosen gate.

With independent reason their souls shall emanate.

Ignorance is humanity's plague so contagious;

In accusations I cast myself too high. I propagate

Misrepresentation of teaching: I self-emulate.

May I free a thousand for nature’s sake,

Or be hung by an evolutionary mistake?

I say I have done no condemning, have no hate,

But society fears the unknown in isolate.

I find my being dragged in impending fate,

I will die for a cause with soul stalemate.

Naïve are the sheep whipped by heartache.
