Dispelling Charms
Let’s give the stuffed shirts
a future they never planned
by gaining converts
until the guild is out-manned
with truth till it hurts
each serpent brand in their hand.
I shall not give out
one iota of passion
to scoundrels devout;
I seize their lies of ration.
Malthusian doubt
cannot defeat compassion.
Love conquers by choice
the demons exalting doom
by raising our voice
until there is no more gloom
in lungs that rejoice
the gift of creation’s bloom.
