And did that anthropocentric God wane with their thoughts and beliefs all unseen?
I don't think so! He's up there with the others lying low
Vying with those who you've traded your life to bless your soul!
And have they told you how to think, cleansed your mind of sepsis and autonomy?
Or have you escaped scrutiny, and regaled yourself with depravity?

Unnecessary, in our expanding global c**ture of efficiency...
Now we all fear this impasse we have built to our future
(Ever so near!) Ever so near, and oh so austere
