Against Bigotry
Be not a slave of a bigoted mind 
With crafty heart that's so unkind 
For its tyranny will enslave your soul 
Like a sickle that will rip apart your goal

The artists worship it.
We seek it in gardens,
find it in dreams.
I shrink from the mirror
because I’m a slave to it;
a serf to beauty’s tyrannous queen....

The noble and gentle are bewildered and dazed

Today the world is simply disenchanted
     Tomorrow there will be many fingers raised...

Expelled again from cosmic matters
The fool consults his satellite
Eager to shred to tatters
All ambition to fight
Structured tyranny
Rolling over
Civil minds
Without
Fear...

A bravado
Of cowardice.

Of power trip
In weak leader.

In tyranny.
