The past,
myth.
How
things were.
What
was thought.
History,
built on
Itself.
Archaic thought,
held high as
truth.
Misty past,
cloaked in
mystery,
superstition,
fear.
Deep past
shrouded in
Ignorance.
Shrouded in
fear.
Today, modernity
leaning on
ignorance,
leaning on
fear.
Clinging
to the
past.
Holding
ancient myths
as gospel.
Gospels controlling.
Future,
what’s to come.
Heavy, dense.
unwieldy.
Shattering archaic
thought.
Archetypical
thinking,
losing resonance.
Evolving,
blending,
as more is
learned.
Infinitely
more to
learn.
Old ways die.
Die hard!
Infinitely
more to
learn.
The future,
leaving
the past to
fade away,
disappear.
Disappear
into the
ether.
As if never
here.
Never
here at all.
