THE GENIUS OF THE CROWD
The
Genius
Of the crowd
Akira
There is enough treachery, hatred, violence, absurdity
In the average human being
To supply any given army on any given day
Any given army on any given day
The best at murder are those who preach against it
And the best at hate are those who preach love
And the best at war
Finally
Are those who preach peace
Those who preach God (those who preach God)
Need God (need God)
Those who preach peace (those who preach peace)
Do not have peace (do not have peace)
Those who preach love (those who preach love)
Do not have love (do not have love)
Beware the preachers (beware the preachers)
Beware the knowers (beware the knowers)
Beware those who are always reading books
Beware those who either detest poverty
Or are proud of it
Beware those quick to praise
For they need praise in return
Beware those quick to censor
They are afraid of what they do not know
Beware those who seek constant crowds
They are nothing alone
Beware
The average man the average woman
Beware their love
Their love is average seeks average
Their genius is in their hatred
There is enough genius in their hatred to kill you
To kill anybody
Not wanting solitude
Not understanding solitude
They will attempt to destroy
Anything that differs from that concept
Those who preach God (those who preach God)
Need God (need God)
Those who preach peace (those who preach peace)
Do not have peace (do not have peace)
Those who preach love (those who preach love)
Do not have love (do not have love)
Beware the preachers (beware the preachers)
Beware the knowers (beware the knowers)
Not being able to create art
They will not understand art
They will consider their failure
As creators
Only as a failure of the world
Not being able to love fully
They will believe your love
Incomplete
And then they will hate you
And their hatred will be perfect
Like a shining diamond
Like a knife
Like a mountain
Like a tiger
Like hemlock
Their finest art
Those who preach God (those who preach God)
Need God (need God)
Those who preach peace (those who preach peace)
Do not have peace (do not have peace)
Those who preach love (those who preach love)
Do not have love (do not have love)
Beware the preachers (beware the preachers)
Beware the knowers (beware the knowers)
