Reason Crucified is the Human Story

Some days reason is too onerous to takeYou want to kick the tracesWallow in temptationShake your maneNot reflecting that the truly reasonable soulsSay Socrates or JesusWere indeed the very souls of reasonAnd killed for itLeft for dead
The very fabric of this world seems built onThe struggle between reason and perfidyPerfidy turned into form and substanceEnshrining the pathologicalIn Gehry's New YorkRejecting AlexanderGoing the crazy way
We ought to stand for reasonSplitting differencesChoosing with Falstaff to lie dead upon the fieldRather than posture for the crowd and die
But something in us sees reason As Dostoevsky's key
The hell free world of JesusLacks the heady kick Of Satan's jeweled crown
