Study JONESTOWN.
Study the microcosm:
same old socialist
tyrant on the loudspeaker:
revolutionary compound,
demon king enthroned
in his pavilion;
feudal lord
having his way
with all his nubile daughters . . .
the inner circle
with the automatic weapons.
⛧
Jim Jones
was a star.
No Little Richard, he . . .
no wannabe white nights
of James Browns . . .
away with your Elvises
your Supremes;
lightweight crooners all:
mere Marilyn Mansons.
But Reverend Jones
played the REAL funk,
the TRUE Soul music.
There is earth,
there is wind,
and sometimes
fire.
But Jonestown LIVE—
that was a show, brothers and sisters.
When Reverend Jones was at the mike
it was serious as hell.
(Father knows best.)
★
same old lies / same old poison / spiritual wickedness / lost souls recycled for hell
communes / community / communism
communes / community / communism
(heard all this shit before):
strident calls for Social Justice / the Social Gospel / Socialist Delusion
Father knows how it ends.
Drink up, brothers and sisters:
it’s closing time.
