A World
like no other.
Tiny blue speck
in a void
unfathomably large.
Self aware beings
truly not aware of much.
Self impressed
with no reason to be.
Obsessed
with sex and violence
driving forces of existence.
Compression point coming.
Evolution of thought
and reality
speeding forward
like never before,
moving at such speed
it could easily fly
off the rails.
How to manage
the transition is the quest.
New
driving forces
must prevail,
the old ones
will explode it all.
Hate and hormones
must be exchanged
for a global philosophy
of humanism,
that benefits all.
Technology
will be the key.
Will it be controlled
by the few or the many?
Will central masters
dictate
or will mass communication
win the day.
Will it be a global dictatorship
or universal democracy?
Will Humanism
prevail
or will religious/ governmental
oligarchies subjugate?
The future is fluid.
Humanism must prevail,
or dystopia it will be.
