The Right Way
The Right
Way
There is an alternative world to be had.
Sometimes it’s a little out of focus, yes,
But it is there and it is real.
It is a world where you choose your reality.
It is a world devoid of corroboration –
Facts mean little in the face of belief.
It is a world that explains your bias as a mystery,
And is now a truth.
It is a world that allows all sins forgivable,
Given the right bank account.
It is a world that lets you choose comfortable lies,
In place of facts that damage your mellow.
It is a world where violence is sold openly,
And candies offend.
It is a world where your god bends to your will,
And righteousness has nothing to do with right.
It is a world that will wrap you in the comfort of easy
assurance,
A world that will concede your every wrong is your right,
As long as you are wrong to the right people.
It is a world where you can do whatever,
And fuck ‘em if they can’t take a joke.
It is a world that is easy to enter:
It’s just a step to the right.
