Ancient Thought

A Poem by John Prophet



Ancient 

thought.

Spinning

up.

Past to

present.

Mesmerizing.

Old ways

still

permeate.

Modernity,

replete.

Fear.

Superstition 

still holding

sway.

Ancient 

thought,

ways 

gripping

firm.

Holding

civilization 

at bay.

Generations

passing forward

superstition,

fear.

Old thought,

how valid?

Truly,

what 

did the

ancients

know?

New

reality 

forming.

Taking

hold.

A.I.

wiping

it all

away.
