Collective Salvation
Collective a salvation does seem vague,
And counteract responsibility,
Vexation,- like the Rinderpest and plague,
Disorienting like a buzzing flea.
Devoid it is of God and trust in Him,
A barrel in which shrimps and small fish teem,
Whose owner whispers "dearest shrimps behave!
You are collected well, you are safed,- so safe".
God has no say and plays in this no role,
With man possessing a collective soul,
No deity to long for and adore
But greedy lions that for welfare roar.
Nobody home who will in judgement sit,
On spending sprees, hudge debts and deficit,
And years lost of the innocent and young,
That will forget bright deams and freedom's song.
Nobody home there is to well reward,
Or to reprove with mercy's equity,
No God, no deity no Savior Lord,
But shrimps proclaiming self-sufficiency.
In this salvation's merry autobus
Sits scientist and the Rhinocerus,
And claimants of entitlements to boot
That sing of bliss and of beatitude.
The happy saved ones are so glad to share
Their bliss with Rhino, skunk and Polar bear
Crawl through the pearly gates to pitch their tent,
In praise of the providing Government!
