Break the Conventions; Keep the Commandments

NB: Title from the words of GK Chesterton
*****

Go “break the conventions!”
And “keep the commandments!”
Rebel! against lawless
Rebellions
Rise up! by embracing
Those laws that were God sent
And meant to teach love 
To us hellions

Conform not! to copies
So-called “nonconformists”
Refusing to recognize
Truth
Their “group-think” defy!
Become its reformist
Decry! all who hard truths
Eschew

Subvert! Take back morals!
Out-quarrel the dictums
Of the “free-love” sans love
Revolution
Its pills have us blue-pilled
It reaps unplanned victims
As weddingless sex sows
Confusion

Campaign! for true “tolerance
(That is, not intolerant
Of people or viewpoints
Displeasing)
Displayed in Christ’s welcome
Of earth’s full conglomerate
Whose love is inclusive

And yet…

Whose “…sin no more” call

Is unceasing
