POETRY - PHILOSOPHY


Greed, the Chicken or the Egg.

Is the driving impetus desire, of a capitalistic consumer orientated society,
Greed, a perniciously degrading bestial tool of control,
Conceived to fulfill the breach, in fatalistic slave consciousness.
Where the new sense of freedom to work, earn, spend and enjoy,
Veiled the intangible but ensnaring shackles of material desires.
Or is it that this level of consciousness, is where the majority of humanity focuses,
And when this focus rises, so will the morality of the mode
Of engine, driving our sociological train ever forward, outward & upward.
