The Worship of Man's Reason

(Let no trust be vested in men, but bind them down with the chains of the Constitution) The wave of the future for disaffected man; such a noble experiment, our revolutionary plan. World wide in scope, humanity’s salvation; workers paradise, we’ll bring to every nation. Utopia we’ll build, making all things new, From the ash-heap of Capitalism and Monarchy too. A socialist world is our humanist creed; Securing the future, fulfilling all need. That, opiate of the people, religion, must go. Materialism shall prevail, all we atheists know. From each, his abilities, to each one his need; we’ve charted the course, the masses we lead. Yet, the masses are dumb, they don’t understand, so we use the whip, as we lead by the hand. The firing squad too, for those who equivocate, to insure a better tomorrow, we also learn to hate. Counter-revolutionaries - we had to do them in; required men to inform, even on their next of kin. Mass killing for the cause, the end justifies the means; starvation and deprivation to insure our lofty dreams. Our collapse came too soon, we didn’t have the time, to perfect our glorious system - punish every crime. The proletariats were unthankful, tho’ for them we did it all. Now, we find approval only in the western academic hall. Lionel Prov. 16:25 “ There is a way that seemeth right to a man, but the end thereof is the way of death.”
