Invocation

Invocation

Protect yourself

From the invader

With mantra oft-repeated,

Learned from a mirror.

Guard your beliefs

With text misrepresented

With word careful twisted,

Misheard, misread, and misspoken.

Take your comfort

In hearing your thought respoken,

Reiterated, reworded, recited,

Made true with repetition.

Take care to repudiate

Fact laid before you,

Opting for dissemble

When the documents reveal.

Keep your vision clear

Of the evidence presented,

Trusting only in

The things you think you know.

Beware the trap of logic,

Of reasoned cogent argument,

And accredited evidence -

Only conspiracy is real.

So, keep true to the mandate given you,

Let no outside influence,

Infect you with confirmed knowledge,

Turning you away from the lies that you trust.

In this way you will find

Ways deeper into the maze,

Created especially for you,

And keep you contained in the dark.

Repeat this incantation,

At need when proof assails you,

When the testimonies,

Shake your faith in lies you must believe.
