This is a poem I created to comment on how society has been programmed to demonize those who dare to think outside the box and question the view of reality as presented.

Tin Foil Hat
W. Darren Reder
05/19/2017

Daring to think brings scoff and scorn,
When thoughts oppose the common porn.
To doubt the herd makes you the rat,
The one who wears that tin foil hat.

Throughout all time, Plurality's Wall,
Ensured mankind remained at a stall.
To challenge the view of this or that,
Secured your use of a tin foil hat.

A mind that's washed remains on a track,
Going in circles, forward then back.
Pretension and pride, a fool begat,
Afraid to wear that tin foil hat.

The senseless masses are easily led,
To believe the madness others have said.
Original thoughts become like a gnat,
Teasing their minds with a tin foil hat.

"Away you go, believer of schemes,"
The Washed tell those with views extreme.
They "know" the truth of this or that,
No room for those with tin foil hats.

Their "truth" was brought and somehow blessed,
By men of old and girls with breasts.
Implanted quick, a coup d'etat,
Don't let them don that tin foil hat!

How can we change this pompous state?
What tool will help their minds dilate?
Will they not cease to bring combat,
To those who wear the tin foil hat?

Cast off the ship of lies its berth,
Let anchors fall, their chains to earth.
Release your minds and have a chat,
And never fear that tin foil hat.
