Medieval
Medieval customs;
Beliefs passed down from ages past.
Medieval costumes:
From the splendid to absurd.
Medieval superstition;
Posing as the rational.
From the Dark Ages
Into the darkness of thought.
Shackling our breath
To a system that counts for nought.
Medieval thoughts
From medieval minds
Masqueradinf as sense.
Medieval values
From prescientific times
From there to thence.
Mass hallucinations
Reinforcing a multitude of sins.

They seem stuck firmly in the ancient past. They need to move on.
