Make Fools of Them That We Might Have Their Women
he sat them down and told them
as of which time he would
change his name
and he felt that a certain sum of currencey
would conpemsate
for his time.
as of which time
he would have title and rank above all of those
he thought himself
superior to.
he fashioned aggreements and gave positions to others
that understood what he was saying.
he toughtother how to think like him
and told them why they should
submit to his will
and why such would be profietible for him
he gave reason and cause for dismissing
those he saw as foolish friviolous and even foul.
which words sdhall have those
who against the invisble
and he who is stupid.
then those that cheatest shall marry and him who
was right is lonely and dispaired.
than what he speakest is spoken as wordds of a foolish people.
that you are wasted upon the shores
of fooliivty
and that those in opposition
of you have gained and supported the trust
of those who have fooled you with deseat and destain
might they prosper
and you suffer from the loneliness of your own foolishness.
thus speakest he that sayeth this.
