REJOICE!
You are the persecuted ones.
You will never be accepted.
You will never be initiated with the
rites of power.
You will never be permitted into the
caste of the ruling classes.
You will be persecuted until the ends
of time.
REJOICE!
Unlike the Christian Church, which rose
from persecuted to persecutor, you will
never be empowered, never be
authorized, never be in charge.
You are persecuted. You will always be
persecuted.
You will be branded heretic.
You will be denounced from the pulpit
and the television screen.
You will be scrutinized by civilization
and found lacking in virtue.
You will be swept up with the devil's
debris.
REJOICE!
Unlike Al-Qaeda, which rose from
obscurity to celebrity, you will never
be considered, never be feared, never
suffer from delusions of grandeur.
You are in the minority. You will
always be in the minority.
You will be passed over, discarded,
downsized, disposed, and trashed.
You will be dismissed as an
irrelevancy.
No one will come to your aid.
You are alone.
REJOICE!
Unlike everyone else, who rises from
proletarian to consumerist machine, you
will never be programmed, never be
brainwashed, never be owned.
For you swim against the stream, you
are strong.
You are the lone voice in a
materialistic wilderness.
You are the crazed prophet.
You are the voice of irrationality in a
world of brutalizing sanity.
You are the pavement cracks.
You are the lost stuff of history.
You are not of what they are.
And for that you will be unmercifully
hounded like the rats of the black
plague.
REJOICE!
Take comfort.
For you are the persecuted ones.
