An Ontology of Convenience

Divide the world in two
It's much easier to digest that way
Swallow it whole; don't chew
Or you better spit it out
The world is not for beholding;
It is for dissect
For projecting

Projecting ideology
Projecting illusion
The world is not for beholding;1
It is for molding
And upholding
Molding reality
As we see fit;
Upholding exclusion
Making it
The world
The realm of and for the privileged
And the privileged alone

Who are you to see the world in your own way?
Why don't you just conform?
It's easier that way

Listen up:
Disguise ideology as convenience
It's much easier that way

Listen up:
We're sharing the Truth with you
Disguise ideology as convenience
Disguise ideology as truth
You'll get 'em every time.
Dress ideology in sheep's wool.
Make sure "Reality" aligns
With the ideology of
The privileged
And the powerful
