Absent Minded
Designer Miracles
a cure is no longer a miracle
but science
peace is no longer a miracle
but strategy
life is no longer a miracle
but a history lesson.
why couldn't Hitler have just been an act?
thousands of actors
fooling the future in order to learn the proper way.
no suffering except the illusion.
Why couldn't slavery have just been a tragic story like Santa clause,
an unpleasant story in the history books, of oppression for all the future to learn the vallue....
why did it have to go so far?
if only the world knew,
where did the past bury the truth?
what lie to sell the history books
for tomorrow, or can we pay the unholy price for the truth?
Money greedy political actors,
and a justice system that was never fair
o world run on corruption and image
to be born of beauty is to be born
an automatic life of success.
why couldn't war just be a mini series we call the news,
no real weapons or pain, but actors, sound effects, and no real bad guys.
good intentioned world justice
blind us to each others goals
and we kill each other thinking the other is wrong.
the psychological battle of many personalities.
why don't we write our future lessons down
create a prophet who predicts them
and the unbelievable story of his or her life.
make history repeat itself every 26 years a cycle of false racism, then terrorism and then war, predicted by a hero eventually the truth of this is revealed and the list of order is come to know and all the wars are revealed as fake money making news schemes to keep people in order and rich, and the cycle starts over.
