Devolution

From that quintessential lamb

that multiple cell structure

formed within time’s womb,

our fractured minds

sailed through

blackholes and galaxies

timeframes and timelines

through stalactites

and stalagmites

of icy revolutions

through fractal rays

hidden within

ancestral catacombs

and then we are reborn:

a single-cell structure

with no mitochondria

to power our minds:

(Our inverted ontogeny

becomes the allegory of our being)

the consciousness

of our existence

perceived through

the lubs and dubs

in the heart of the city

and through:

Suicide Bombings

Missile Testing

God Killings.

In this Century

we are wiser by death.

Note: The poll above shows that poems and book review are two activities on this blog that readers would want to see but I think I have received less comments on the poems than on my articles. Please let me know what you think about the poems I post.
