A Poem by Ana B.

I dropped the Conscience while I was fleeing

The Celestial Temple of Cogitation.

Mind has done enough sightseeing

Of the silent Anarchy’s gestation…

Its coordinates has many doorways

And yet folks stay clear out of the Mud

But oh, the precious Humanity has always

Had its tree roots soaked in blood.

You're welcome
Those roots always have been and always will be 'soaked in blood'. It is the nature of the beast. The idea that conscience was dropped when fleeing
'Cogitation" is intriguing, suggesting that brutality is only possible without thought.
Good write, Ana.

Thank you Ted :)
The illustration takes over here.. and directs thoughts to it, rather than your tragic words.. BUT
the journeying is so worthwhile.. your use of language is gentle-calm but alluringly exquisite. (sense?) As to the video.. oh my.. am still listening and seeing even though finished.

A tragedy made wonderful by a fine writer..

A beautiful post. Ana B.. absolutely beautiful.

True, since ancient times, we have always sacrificed our humanity for the sake of advancement. History is always filled with hatred, greed and blood but from these we should learn and not repeat
