The fated man

[blazeofglory]

Today in his full manifestation
Blown to a metric height
Man rises high to touch Mars
Belittling everyone else
Putting the rest at his heel
Complete individualism
Let us see his other self
Petite and insidious
His technological adroitness is a spiritual crutch
But he is springing back every time to his original diminution
This civilization, this advancement
This exploration into the unknowns
Yet he cocoons himself in his paltry disposition
Socialism is on the wane
Conceit is on the gain
Imperial human progress
Mind-boggling human feat
Penetrate a little deeper
All we see is hollowness
Nuclear family is a nebular social condition
We are losing brotherliness to a heap of individual motifs
Our sense of self-gratification defies evolutionary human progress
Humanity is on the edge, spiritually split up
His very height drowns him
Into the littleness of morbidity
Man is doomed to day by his own progress
The wheel of humanity is turning reversely

You are not prepared for understanding what you losely proclaim. Your lack of calcium makes you think of turning reversely, as if it were a bad thing, when what we are doing is in fact turning reversely the way of the freaking leadership in slave cultures. They'll be finished.

I could not figure out your comment. It is indirect. Can you say it in plain words?

Blaze, your piece reads somewhat too angry and judgmental to me. It's sure a manifesto the contents of which I tend to disagree with, I'm afraid. I see good things in progress, technology, human curiosity and ambition. That they don't always serve right purposes is another discussion. I love humanity, have known great human figures. You, me, and some other few folks around us are deep digging creatures aspiring for real growth and human fulfilment... so not all are vain, self-centred, or hollow. Don't you think so?
