This is no classic scene on a movie screen. This is real life. And it’s scenes are the most obscene.
This pain is felt first hand, And your confusion is severe. We look to the asphalt and to these mechanic machines and Believe we live in our ancestors virtual dreams. You scream: “It’s 2019!” And take that as evidence of progress; Like we are closer to ‘the truth‘ now Than when even our foods weren’t processed?
Progress? Yes, We emphasise physicality And make clowns of our spirituality So we can parade falsity.
You see,
We latch to this planet like a leach. Manipulating your free speech As you learn only what is deemed worthy to teach. And that’s it! That’s all you need to know! Go on, throw a fit And call it “history in the making” While you transfer all knowledge in A glowing rectangle, And still mistake emotions with rationality Yes we’ve reached this calamity!
Don’t make me laugh! You hate war? But you get bored of peace And you fetishise your guns. And this is no longer a secret, Now you post red and caption it “aesthetic” And laugh-cry at those who are unfortunate.
Glory is in the body count, And ****** is just a sport. Honour is in the gold, And there’s no longer any justice In courts.
Truth is You’re building a fort Where ignorance is at its foundation. And while you do not know yourself You cry “you ought!” To a nation?
