Your crystal ball is a sham:
a charlatan’s attempt at deceit.
I know my future, and it lies
behind a veil of smoke and mirrors.
Magician’s tricks and slight of hand
cannot dissuade me from my fate,
and such is your definition of
preparation (installation, propagation,
indoctrination).
Society, do not insult me:
I refuse your defamation;
Dignity, do not abandon me:
I rely on your inspiration.
Mr. Precedent, the cynic,
will never discourage me
because His crystal ball is
a sham.
