Mundane concerns stifle the soul that hungers for the infinite Practicality subverts the mind as it questions and wrestles with this existential enigma... Bound by the curse of productivity and the insatiable drive for accumulation Libidinal, perverse thoughts drive the working man to this, to that... he is a puppet pulled by invisible strings: the corporate, bureaucratic masters calling the shots laughing control freaks... the world is theirs for the taking and the worker-slave raises his hands a sense of triumph as the crumbs fall down We live in a Kafkaesque era merrily languishing in this willful dementia.
