Take Your Medicine

1st ENTRY

Stencil created by; Keith McHugh

Consent equals dissent,

Into another's intent,

A message sent inside,

Directing the ride,

Having to coincide,

With who chooses rules,

Fools to a false Idea,

Deciding to follow their guide,

Getting you to pick a side,

Dividing you from God,

Trotting on others beliefs,

For some personal relief,

Easing their own grief,

A thief wouldn't be able,

To have a seat at the table,

A fable when tested,

Arrested development,

Eloquent dialogue specialists,

Listing all the guidelines,

Refining your inner mind,

Into their Confined ideas,

Designed to keep you coming back,

It will put you back on track,

Then smack you with the past,

Alas you'll never pass,

They have a class you can take,

Partake in their wine,

It's blood from the Divine,

Find value in their bread,

It's the body of the dead,

Said to heal you from a sin,

If you take it again and again,

All are welcome in,

If they take their medicine.
