Abraham Father of Many Retorts
Fake news and beliefs in hegemonic certitude at its roots
An epidemic of political correctness spread through the world
Though shalt not speak my name in vain for I know no sin but
Hedonism and narcissistic conquest spread a message of fear
Enabled collusion and falsification of a prophesy of fulfilment
Rooted in distortion as mountains of burgers consumed carnal lust
Off my seed sprang lingua franca truth and unequivocal meaning
For genesis and abolition of semantics to convene com-mensural peace
Mary Magdalene met Sarah and Isaac where Fatima turned tables
At which Mc Donalds launched another greedy advertizing campaign
No ham between buns or else target groups might dictate profits of doom
Yet another idea of Yankees making amends for crude marginalization
Relief from hunger and decadence won’t be achieved by changing the label
Eradication of suffering does not depend on what you may call grilled meat
To be or not to appear but please let Ham-let be nourishing in his words
Opulence still exists regardless of euphemisms and designer designations
Rostra of eloquent meddling won’t make roast beef ovo lacto vegetarian
To honour my commandments you will require a bit more than denotation
So let it be known that my name is Abra-ham and ham-id means true servant
