Satan's Truth

I am feeling distressed by my feelings of late, There are people I love who seem poisoned by hate, People I know are smart, willful Science deniers, Call truth (they don't want to hear), "fake news" at best, Set themselves up as experts and social outliers, Deny any voice that’s outside 'comfort test,' Hear them TRUMPet, 'right,' 'wrong' is in fact just “world view,” And if you don’t agree then you’re missing a screw! It’s deniers of 'Truth' I find saddens me most, For this simple act puts human mind into 'coast,' It seems slippery slope, anarchistic descent where Discussions aren’t possible, good will’s intent Largely absent, when logic itself is a fool’s dare! They've one social grace that says “I am content And I don't see a need to put my mind in play For I ‘know’ in advance, you have nothing to say!” I’ve one science trained friend who claims climate news fake (When predictions reveal that an answer’s mistake!) But the truth is results like this make Science better, Best Science, a model, that’s always refined! Duped Republicans claim to know truth to the letter, A lemming like flock all in love with group mind! But the problem for them they refuse to decry, If THEIR FAITH is misplaced, we can kiss ass goodbye! If one Science trained man is so foolish as this, Can the unblessed be blamed if they hope Trump brings bliss? The desire for simplicity makes men hate others, While groveling pitch tents in camps of the rich, They deny FATHER’S FAITH that says “All men are brothers!” And hope against hope they can scratch Donald’s itch! It seems clear that most men do the best that THEY can, Just to Hell with their children and future of man! Long Tooth August 11, 2017
