War of Words
Imagine for a moment the tower of Babel --- You remember, the story from the Bible. ‘Twas a testament of what man can do When working together in one voice not two. Yet their work was left unfinished and incomplete; Man's grandiose endeavor crumbled in defeat, Their unity of one language, God shattered --- No longer of one mind, they scattered. The pen is mightier than the sword, ‘twas said. Today that pen would be a butter knife for bread! Take heed how ‘Politically Correct' English Has morphed into a linguistic gibberish. Confounded by semantics, thoughts are muddled; Such parsing renders a mind that is addled. Any lucid thinking is converted to spin; These things I learned to my own chagrin. PC talk is kindred to speaking on eggshells Delivering a diminished dialect of infidels. This PC culture will be our nation's ruination Especially when they skew Divine inspiration! Nevertheless, His Word still stands secure Despite their futile attempts to obscure! PC poopaganda is just one more battle Because theirs is a war of incessant prattle. Many are duped by this ‘feel good' parlance Oblivious of conflict as if in a trance... Clarity of thought is unequivocally lost In the ‘War of Words'. ‘Tis a holocaust!! Fear not, no need for concern... For by His Spirit we can discern! Just like at Pentecost, they all understood The many tongues of every brotherhood. When good men stand up and refuse this stupidity Reason is restored with much less ambiguity. Your speech is clarified without PC jargon And common sense is once again common. As for me, I will refute, rebut and assert Even when I sound blunt and curt... No disrespect intended by my lament, In this war of words, ‘tis my instrument! © Ex-Rea 01/15/08
