Does man want to prove that there is life
on other planets or that he exists? Theories
abound re: human consciousness A mote in
the eye of the Lord gone rogue stuck on ON
Meaningless static
Today my significant other said the next revolution
will be the revolution of meaning When the bloom
falls from the rose of materialism +those who have
never sought meaning (mostly because it’s free) will
sharpen their forks +fight you for yours
Culled in the desperate hours when you pined away for
2.5 vacations annually +a cottage on a packed peninsula
where you would sit sweaty+corpulent Blissfully unaware
that in Jeb’s boathouse over there unspeakable things are
being done to the fatted calf
