The Elaborate Hoax

Written by Wilfred Mellers, Saturday, February 12,2011, @ 12: 05 PM



What if everything you were told was a lie

Would you just lie down and die?

Would you cease to try?

Would you even question why?

Would faith still render all your decisions?

Would there still be religious divisions?



What if trusted beliefs were just works of fiction

Sacred words were an elaborate misconception

Fables taken from other stories

Would you still sing of morning glories?

Would societies morals decay?

Would Sunday be another Monday?



What if there was proof that you are wrong?

Would you refuse and still go along?

What the fool truly believes

Concepts bold he cannot conceive

The deceived follows the blind

Far too scared to be left behind

The hoax convoluted by designed

A contract written but never signed

Words your life was defined

Does this blow your diminutive mind?



Instituted mind control

Paid in full sitting on a bankroll

There is nothing here meant to be funny

It is truly all about money

So easy one can be jaded

Pacify the sheep and for they are easily persuaded

If there is no heaven then how can there be a hell

More fallacies and tales to tell



Foul play uncovered by the sleuth

People don't want to know the truth

Answer when you are called and do as you were told

Meanwhile, the theocracy empties your billfold

Wisdom and knowledge are on parole

Watch the fabrications run up the flagpole



You say I am lacking in faith

Consumed by an unholy wraith

Only the hoodwinked closes their eyes

You can go on and believe all those lies

Stories were written ages ago

Just because you wrote it doesn't make it so

Let the dead bury the dead

In the sand, you have already buried your head
