The Hutterites in N. America

The Hutterites in N. America - The Blank Fight

Individuality which is denied

And carefully guarded against

Throughout life is completely abolished

In the heaven envisioned by the hutterites

Are they Mennonites no

The look like Amish yes

But of the three Anabaptist groups

They differ in one important respect

All 3 tried communal living

But only one attempt was a success

Get it over with

Make it fast

Suffer suffer suffer

Any secular task

A meal even life itself

Is not meant to enjoy

Just let it pass

Get it over with

Hutter set a trend for generations to come

Burned at the stake

His namesake remained on the run

Persecuted executed and finally fled to America

Maybe we'll have luck in south Dakota instead

Individuality which is denied

And carefully guarded against

Throughout life is completely abolished

In the heaven envisioned by the hutterites

Get it over with

Make it fast

Is it any wonder

With the hutterites past

That a fast life and slow death

Are considered best

Make it quick

Then confess

Get it over with
