what shall we do without the vision of an end ?

Humans need clear borders,
or so it is known since the dawn of time.
Without them,
they take liberties
which make them fit for crime.

But a limited human ?
look at them.
They are quite benign.

Take the end
from the human's outlook
and you have made him into
an empty book.

Put an end in front,
and you will see him toil
with zeal
with lust
for he knows -
he must.

We start living,
when we realize we will die,
tells philosophy.
And she does not lie.

But why is it that death does not suffice  ?
that in addition to that personal annihiliation,
humans add group tragedies, the fruit of their imagination ?

I think that the answer is clear, simple and sad -
deep in our heart, we all know that our civilization is already dead.

But why,
Instead of striving
to give life to a new alternative from the ash
we are thriving
on the images of our presumed fall and crash ?

Is it that we have no faith in our abilities ?
Is it that we fear of a worse alternative ?
or maybe, can it be, that we just have had enough
of the project and we wish to call its bluff ?

One way or another,
it is quite clear,
that following 2012's failure
to be the last
another Armageddon is soon to be conjured.
Why ?
We are human,
and so we must.

ages

It has been ages
since the last time.

So M-U-C-H
t-
i-
m-
e
Has Passed
that I no longer really remember.

How does it feel ?
Is it R-E-A-L-L-Y Real ?
Sometimes, obsessing about it, is such an ordeal
that I just wish there was some kind of a pill
to make this infinite need sum up into some form of nil.

But some parts of ourselves are not that easy to kill.

Once more, my soul's refusal to kneel
before Mundanity's grill
makes my spine chill,
for I - no other - shall pay the resulted bill.

But as the sight of that other path,
overflowed by the bulk
blocks my throat
with a metaphorical chunk
I seem to have no other choice
but to debunk
to rejoice
and to find my own voice.


It has been ages
since the last time.
But the next time will be different.
