Ideologies

For as long as history tells us
Man has always
Searched for the next big thing.
New thoughts, ideas, wisdom...
New reason clashing with old customs.
Lofty men rise up across time,
Clashing intellectual swords,
Philosophical warfare...

At the crossroads lie "us".
The common folk who
Want to live a simple life.
But who do we follow?
When everyone seems to know the way.
Who can be a trusted guide?
Crossroads become dead ends for many.
Others have a little faith and trust any guide.
Their ends... Unknown.

Then a man suddenly appears on the scene.
He says he is the way
He says he is the guide
He says he is the destination.
How can this be? I wonder.
I finally stop wondering
And I just follow.
