To Proceed as if Limits did not Exist

In the face of our collective illness

You said we are spiritual beings

Having a human experience

Is materialism the biological necessity then?

 

The corruption of capitalism

Our last revolution of self-betray

In the final analysis, adolescence

 

Is a creative sanctuary of identity formation

Cynical about our own destiny

I’ve heard you call humanity worse things

 

After mastering nature

And raping her for the history books

I wonder if you will yearn for something else?

 

We are one, after all

I suffer in part, what you sufer

You do not know me, but we think the same

 

You said we are unitary beings

Trapped in a system of competition

Is patriarchy still the model of your success then?

 

Did you give a large part of yourself to others?

In a last revolution of procreation?

I’ve heard you say that you don’t want kids

 

Tell me then about the crimes

Of trying too hard, to be different?

when our words meet metal, we can change the world

someone told me that once and i believed him

I'm not sure words matter in a world of daily human greed though, that's just it. Maybe art will die like philosophy did, if there is no profit in it..

two words, when felt with enough strength of heart, can change the world

[Prolific In Verse]

Very keen and observational thoughts.
Neutral thoughts, to ponder more...
I guess when I read all those wonderings and
questions, I see an relationship to an autistic
elusiveness, so hard to get, so hard to have
so hard to live with. Eventually (not as hard) as
Acceptance will land, and being will grow.

Wonderful piece. I most enjoyed it.

Every artist becomes a bit autistic E.L, it's like tunnel vision, or tunnel feeling in my case!

Very true. To reach the end of it... as a writer, for new visions and perspectives. To grow...

[Prolific In Verse]

But what can a writer truly accomplish in this life? I'm not sure being myself qualifies.

That's a good question, I will tell you my answers one day, for they are maybe totally different than yours... :-)
