Is it true follow your bliss? Or
is it a wishful dream to cope with the abyss?
If either are true the former has greater due.
In Pascal’s wager infinite gain or loss,
This is the nature of life’s toss.
I’d rather follow my dream and higher ideal,
The nihilists add nothing and steal.
Post-modern descriptions,
Are opaque encryptions.
Lead mankind into confused derisions.
Civilization has a mind,
It evolves with time.
Like a person whose been hurt,
They respond to protect.
Create a counter view,
To former times knew.
We know too often,
One sided is lopsided.
Each is manifold not anyone or thing exact.
Abuses in religion evoked sac religion.
We inherited this time,
& it’s gotten way out of line.
There’s been no replacement,
Only history’s effacement.
And what’s the alternative?
Progress is to live on mars?
Sounds nauseating as catching SARS!
Apriori ignori
Our age thinks superior to times past,
The average teen back when could surpass.
Machines are becoming sharp,
Playing humans like a harp.
Each string, a preference, orientation and likes.
Once algorithms learn your cords,
Trap you in advertisements by hoards.
Passive apathetic, lazy convenient,
hedonists weak, no back bone.
online trolls, in reality are moles!
Selfish in fear, for other’s aren’t here.
This span, technologies fashion of man.
Its repulsive deep down,
I know you’re with me and frown.
Not that this hadn’t prior existed,
these forces persisted,
technology vines twisted.
We are coming around, I see restless forces in need of guides.
Let me tell you it’s your fellow by your side!
Did you ever question what you’ve been sold?
Or only passively receive the capitalist mold?
Many aim for success,
To compete and win,
Dominate and hate.
It might get you to the top,
Though for most it does not,
& if so, rarely it’s what you thought.
‘For life without friends is not worth living,
Even if you possessed all other goods.’
We must restore our humanity,
Unyoke from ghouls profanity.
The dignity of man shall triumph evil’s plan.
Time to recover faith in the God Man.
