Dogma

Dogma

Dogma.
Truth.
Someone’s
truth.
Dogma.
Authority
laid heavy.
Being
told what
to do.
What
to believe.
Being told
what,
how to
think.
Dogma,
power.
Control.
Control
over all.
The few,
the clueless
few
heavy handed
pressed on
the many.
Dogma,
human dogma.
Useless.
The blind
leading
the blind.
Human truth
a fluid thing.
Easily
manipulated.
Trick of
control.
Not worth
much.
Dogma,
human dogma
merely a
parlor game.
Smoke and
mirrors.
Trick of
convenience
control.
Best
to be
ignored.

Wow JP you went in there and just pulled it apart. I loved the smoke and mirrors line. I mean what better way to keep humanity in check. Fear of the unknown has a strong affect on a person. So using it to control the masses seems like a clever solution. Our minds are manipulated from the moment we are born. Of course it also generates a nice cash flow for those at the top too. 

great poem. I always enjoy how you tackle those bigger subjects
