UNITOUM - Meaningless Activity  

 

Determination is the mother of dedication

It Breeds the repeated action

That leads to Endless motion

Dedication is born without emotion

It Breeds the repeated action

Thus Mindless reaction to life

Dedication is born without emotion

Though real, it is no more than Mush

Thus Mindless reaction to life

Become Meaningless to those who watch

Though real, it is no more than Mush

Mush repeated turns into Manure

Reviewed by Ronald Hull
Reviewed on January 8, 2018
I get the point you are making. Dedication or loyalty can be hammered into brains through repetition of chants, songs, Scripture or slogans. Repetition simplifies life and makes it easy to make decisions, even if they are wrong. Becoming dedicated usually makes one's mind, brain and thinking mush.
