Creed
What's the opposite of faith?
Reason
And who commerce's in sin?
Hypocrites
And if my faith is reason that makes me a sinner
Then I am the model of a righteous hypocrite
Who makes the paradigm shift?
A person
And what constitutes successful conformity
Sheep
Then let me be a person who eats all the sheep
And gives orthodoxy bad indigestion
How do you defy temptation?
Moderation
And who manufactures material pleasure
Adulteress
Let me moderate temptation in stoic observance
So that all of my pleasures are honest in adultery
My Creed
Let my faith be of some reason
And my reason be for justices cause
Justice immune by temptations
Consenting for my needs counsel
For this -
I make no creed
So just ignore me
