I never asked the dark black clouds
For any guidance enroute
I never sought to tame
And befriend rabid dogs ever
I never tried to propitiate
Any god with paens or prayers
And never did I entreat for life
In the sinister alleys of mythdom
I have always resisted hard
All demands of an unholy lien
Made by the self-appointed guardians of religion
Ever since the dawn of my existence
I have been gathering light
Ray by ray
To feed my intellect
Day after day
For I am so intent
To launch a rebellion of illumination
And enlightenment
Against the dark night
