What do we learn
when the knowledge
is turned
to scraps and ashes?
When the past is
less than prologue
cause everyone
was encouraged
to forget all
but the bright
moment,
pleasures pursued,
seconds wasted
being used
as a consumer,
as another tumor
so ingrown
that it can’t be removed.
Rush, play,
point, click,
sleep, eat,
work your life away,
and if you are unhappy
or to tired to do your job
if you feel
slightly unwell,
well we got a pill
to push all that
anxiety
away from humanity.
Until, the still pond
no longer reflects
the wonder and awe
of the artists
we once were.
