COVID-19 pandemic analogous how indigenous peoples got felled...

rew4er2nail

Woebegone, enraged spirits

holographic images taciturn

journeying somberly aghast

at their stolen sacred lands... mourn

dead souls impossible mission

sabotaged aery mission endeavor

happy hunting grounds upheaval

witnessed gaunt bloody sojourn,

perhaps collective aboriginal ghosts return

to haunt cruel innocent heir/heiresses

regarding interlopers, si?

 

Malicious intent birthed in subsequent

quick succession to adventitious,

(nevertheless grievous) events

visited upon heads of storied "Indians")

misnomer spurred European explorers

(more particularly exploiters),

when "discovering" the Americas

to dole out (deliberately)

contaminated accouterments,

plus various sundry trappings

to native inhabitants.

 

Gross misdeeds of our long deceased forebears

debauched, decorated, and dedicated

footloose hedonistic jackbooted violent men

loosed mayhem opening pandora's box

unwittingly and/or intentionally disseminating

seeds of annihilation germinating lethal pandemic

decimating innocent ofttimes knowingly

unleashing opportunistic virile organisms

without vital immunity linkedin

bodily defense mechanisms.

 

With advantage of hindsight

always 20/20 (especially

calendrical juncture planetary

space/time continuum 2020)

opprobrium plentifully quoted

as cosmic consciousness skews perspective,

whereby admission acknowledged

conquistadors looted, pillaged, and raped

(blithely, effectively, and indiscriminately killed)

every man, woman, and child

and/or sowed cultural abomination

acceleration, adulation, aeration...

 

Though thoroughly grounded

within secular humanism

courtesy kickstarting metaphysical realism

philosophical, teleological...

essentially Unitarianism paradigm

whereby ripple repercussions of actions

(think butterfly effect

 

starring Ashton Kutcher - ha)

trigger domino falling action,

yet additionally affects fate,

particularly he/she who

activated, cultivated, generated...

chain of events, particularly

brutal, deplorable, and unforgivable misdeeds.
