Sic Semper Utopia, By Brian37
Offline Sic Semper Utopia, By Brian37
Entropy screams out loud
At the whims of fraud
100% goes in
100% will not come out
Yet the utopia thinking
The scourge of thought
Leads the moth
To the lightbulb
I am the driver
Do it my way
Do not question
It will be ok
Stalin's garden
Is as bloody
As the Inquisition
And Sharia Law
A man in a Palace
Protecting pedophiles
Claims the truth
From high above
Childish tribalism
Did not uncover
The truth of galaxies
Or Gamma rays
DNA has no politics
And cares not of our strife
Of whom we love
Or whom we hate
The universal
Is plain as day
That we are born
Only to die
Sic Semper Utopia
Perfection chased
Is futility
When all we have
Is humanity
Before is after
Both are the same
Atoms decay
And so too mythological claims
The lie of perfection
The futile utopia
Are the rants of tyrants
And insecurity
To be a Paine
Is to learn
To boldly question
Like Jefferson
To accept what is
And shades of grey
While seeking answers
Objectively
One species
Are we all
Give up on utopias
Lest we fall

"Theology is now little more than a branch of human ignorance. Indeed, it is ignorance with wings." - Sam Harris
The path to Truth lies via careful study of reality, not the dreams of our fallible minds - me
From the sublime to the ridiculous: Science -> Philosophy -> Theology
Me to.

If man was formed from dirt, why is there still dirt?
Bob, can you correct my spelling.
"pedophile" is spelled wrong and I meant "shades of gray".
"And so too" not "to".
I would rather hit submit with the errors than to hit the wrong button and lose the poem all together.
Thanks for the complements everyone. Sometimes I hit sometimes I miss, thanks again.
