Analysis of Habituated Craze Dedicated
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
The objective?
To subject everyone,
With a removing the use of common sense.
Done to relieve a thinking to do,
Independently.
Like sheep made to prepare,
To follow and not question...
Where their next step takes them.
When although not care.
As long as loyalty is proven.
And pledged to be theirs.
Habituated craze dedicated.
Given to an image and power to rule.
An habituated craze dedicated,
To money had and what it can do.
A deluded dance with fiction,
Can corrupt a mind to sicken.
And lovers of idols trade in their souls.
A deluded dance with fiction,
Can corrupt a mind to sicken.
And lovers of images barter their souls.
Lawlessness is welcomed to break all rules.
Lawlessness is welcomed to make more fools.
And a quality of life is lost to lose.
A deluded dance with fiction,
Can corrupt a mind to sicken.
And...
Trade in a soul for fool's gold.
Habituated craze dedicated.
To the wolves.
Habituated craze dedicated.
To the thieves.
And false beliefs.
Habituated craze dedicated.
To a fix that addicts.
Quick and no cure for it.
Gone are all thinking minds,
Subjected to affect effective.
Gone are all thinking minds,
Subjected to affect,
Effectively!
Left.
To leave them gone!
As...
Expected.
