FLAT EARTH BLUES
by Bill Kochman
10-28-2025
Some of my online friends insist,
That our planet is actually flat,
But when I strive to correct them,
Man, they just cannot handle that.
Now when you try to present them,
With many solid scientific facts,
They all reveal their true colors,
Even threaten with a verbal axe.
Oh so many silly lies and excuses,
They dream up in their crazy head,
While they're indeed so very wrong,
They cast the blame on you instead.
They'll attempt to turn the tables,
Demanding proof the Earth is round,
While they are the ones who do err,
With no ideas scientifically sound.
They will twist verses in the Bible,
To make them say what was not meant,
Their interpretation is very faulty,
But they simply will not even repent.
Well I will patiently give them time,
As I try hard to change their views,
Yet the time still eventually arrives,
When such absurdity gives me the blues.
So I'll then decide to just back away,
I gave them a good chance to rethink,
But they refused to listen to reason,
From the truth well they will not drink.
My friends, it's indeed a sad occasion,
When people knowingly choose deception,
Their pride will not let them back down,
So they refuse to accept the correction.
Blindness will continue to surround them,
While they all stumble about in the night,
Now Prophet Isaiah warned of such people,
Who walk in darkness and yet call it light.
