The Banality Of Evil Poem by Spanner Thegob

The banality of evil

When we surrender the act of thinking
We lower the bar to morality,
Then blind obedience becomes a virtue.
But this virtue made you vulnerable,
Left you wounded and destroyed.
Starved for truth You swallow lies,
When the spirit of truth is grounded and never gets to fly
Then Choices made by circumstances
become the embodiment of every bad decision
mediocrity becomes a goal...an aspiration
thought becomes An empty road where few have walked
When sages are silenced and bigots shepherd the sheep,
the system is broken.
Hold on to this derision.

When you lose hope, all is lost!

When all is lost there's always hope!
