Savage Mind

poem by: John Prophet
Written on Jun 04, 2018 

Eons 
in the making.
Law of the
jungle
ruling our
way.
Etched on
our soul.
Survival,
at all
cost.
Protecting 
territory,
raiding for
resources.
Power to
control,
ruling over
others.
How 
do we survive?
How 
do we
move forward?
Can the 
animal 
move forward?
Can the
animal control 
Instincts which
control the
animal?
Change
is required 
less the 
animal succumb.
Succumb
to the 
weapons of
today.
Blending with
technology,
merging with
A.I.,
refining the
animal,
the bridge
to the 
future,
the
path to the
Universe.
