Cultural Rescindence


Evolution changes 

the mind of man

 

All insight martyred 

for wider scans

 

The magic filtered

as books proclaim

 

What facts uncover

and time disdains

 

Evolution fosters

a weakened soul

 

Each process stifled

the gist untold

 

Forever whittled

in narrow canes

 

Tomorrow empty

—the past defamed

 

(Dreamsleep: August, 2022)
