The Second Coming

Abidance and Tolerance to a Man are like his two eyes;  
Neither can he prefer one over the other,     
Nor can he mutilate one and become a rejecter;  
If he maintains and polishes these two jewels regularly,  
He is pronounced a social, ethical and divine Animal;  
But if these two ornaments rust and rot beyond repair,  
And begin to strangle the tender throat of the subject,  
He must continue to embrace pain and bury his will under the hypocritical soil,  
In order to stay up in the hierarchy of Beings;  
He would constantly be tempted to taste the fruit from the tree of Change;  
But Alas! He must repress his satanic dreams of revolution;  
He is destined to wait and seduce his companion to commit the act of Disobedience.  
   
Sometimes this hot blooded animal cools his furnace-like mind;  
He becomes willing to dream less, think less and Love more;  
He feels that it is better to be a sacrificial lamb    
If the wool of his skin can provide warmth to his loved ones;  
But who knows whom this misanthropic Society loves?  
It is the Second Coming of this meek Animal;  
He prepares to shake the foundations of this brutal society with his volcanic roar  
When he realizes that the various Establishments and Institutions    
Crave to soak their skins in the blood of Mankind.
