Fueling Destiny

Fueling Destiny


For an ancillary reason he diverted from his path
His objective in that season was to just improve his math
Though he struggled with Philosophy, and Science all the same
He always felt that history should get more of the blame

As a student he had pondered all the things he thought they knew
From the basics, to the classics, till he realized they weren’t true
Only many inconsistencies,..... all scattered over time
Resembling what he hoped for most, but covered by their crimes

He soon decided then, and there to re-work the route he took,
and rejected all the things he learned..., from all their various books
He wrote a new cosmology in defiance of the ban
Now he believes his destiny is fueled by his own hand

The sheep skin cynic is our only reasonable hope to clear the air of the miasma created by the dupes of public education. Hitler, Stalin and Tojo wouldn't have had their war if not for teachers spreading their words. The same can be said for the Jihadis through their madrassas. We have our own examples of Copernicus and Galileo being excommunicated for teaching objective observable science. Now truth revealers like Snowden and Assange are being pilloried for speaking truth to power. Liked this piece, obviously.

ciao,
