The Second Commandment
Thou Shalt Have No Other Gods & No Graven Images Or Likenesses
 
You are who chose believes that make you so unique,
You are whom you have trust, who loves yourself forever,
Who else can so forgive; bring up your “magnifique”?
Who else amends your sins, permits you for endeavors?
 
It’s sad to trade the guts by idolizing man:
How to subvert free sense, even man is admired?
That will enslave the quests from given freedom, then,
To an abyss of time, we’ll wait for the messiah.
 
The freedom of the thoughts, develop a free span,
Free mind, free will and heed, shield from the congregations.
Free spirit builds a soul, free soul defines a plan,
Free conscience rings a bell in time of the solvation.
 
The liberty to change gives freedom to retrieve,
No smart commits a state of mind to freeze it steady.
No bright has to engrave old legacy beliefs,
While idolizing thus, we aren’t future ready.
 
It is a lifetime to learn and choose from the concepts:
From the “science” of atheism to the church's affiliated,
There is a spectrum there, but each one to accept
You have to feel informed, at peace, and educated.
 
Their history’s dogmatic, each tale is so dramatic,
Smart scriptures are poetic, old paintings are esthetic,
You must digest a mission, associate traditions,
Which billions of submissions vote soul of recognition
 
Some borrow a woman's dress and whine to be “oppressed.”
Tattoo foreheads, pierce noses, and other parts around.
It won’t erase the stress or change their hearts’ deep mess,
As well as damn “parades” to show what they are proud of.
 
Another in a gray suit, invisible in crowds,
He needs no attributes to demonstrate his talents,
He doesn’t need to scream, to be a human being
But he can reach the stars, as brilliant and gallant.
 
So, after learning most and fusing best of thoughts,
No needs for other Gods, except the one self-crafted,
A free man of the World, spurns idols to emboss,
Just a goodness of his soul that’s carefully grafted.
<Just a goodness of his soul that’s cannot be extracted.>
