Diminutive Giant

I am watching the bones
Of this beautiful skeleton break
As time is reversed to replace and recover
All the damage that has been done
And to think most of it was by you
You manipulative, diminutive giant, you
All the progress that has been made
With every single step forward
Might soon be gone and erased from time
Put back into the closet from whence they came
And why? Because there are too many
Ignorant hypocrites, quickly skimming the cover
Of the book of life, failing to take note
Of any possible deeper meaning between the lines
Sometimes the abstract doesn't say it all
And you people fail to realize
It is open for interpretation
By those willing to read
So go ahead, carry on
Let it all wash away into the sea
Of outcasts and misfits you wish believed
If only believing didn't mean having
All the equivalent wretched ideas and
Shunning all the same types of clothing
On the covers of those you actually bother to skim
