The human conditionA Poem by AphitenzaIn case of identity crisisYou are human being At it's best You have the potential to be so glorious but are not by design Your mind has no limit to desire Yet the execution is prevented You yearn for omniscience And long for an explanation You lead your life in the likeness of your creator And out of covetous reverence You wish to embody him You're aware of your maledictions That you've no pure goodness Nor fixated moral code Nor strong righteous will You don't dwell on it Cause you'd have created yourself supreme Artificial self-proficiency You are a type divine but disastrous Liberated yet self constrained And only cause you live amongst countless variants of yourself You've become the basis of all life So take it all in This is you; Infamous man In his most evolved form © 2017 Aphitenza |
