I.D-Deal-An-Ology of Irresponsibility

I.D-deal-an-ology of Irresponsibility Turn creation away from appreciation And into a miracle Turn the miracle away from care For what possible pathetic hands as these Could ever change anything Turn life into a repentance for living The demoralization of heavens acceptance Gives anyone the easy excuse Not to do; anything Tis the last refuge The last fig leaf of blindness The very last impromptu surrender That has nothing at all to do with this Ideology of Irresponsibility Places responsibility at someone else’s feet And heaven augments the captivity Of dreaming for something better But; Better the dream in practice Punishing the wicked The social classes and poverty created To think elitist But deprivation instigated The cause of so much suffering Turn the blind eye to perfection then And wait upon salvation Turn teaching to the plethora of rigmarole Do nothing about them Say then It is all in God’s hands And wash clean your own Rest the conscience in the balm of deliverance Praise all the little tiny aspects of creation And never know What it means to be responsible for them Walk away in comfort Be comforted By an inglorious gratitude That strips caring to a falsehood Of simply shrugged shoulders Cry humanity, weep, wail and bitter turn Shed the tears in abundance And do nothing at all About them Ideology of Irresponsibility Places responsibility at someone else’s feet And heaven augments the captivity Of dreaming for something better Though; Better the dream in practice Rather than the if, but and maybe of promises for tomorrow and not today
