Creativity Versus The Conservative Order

Sparks of originality and roots of compassion Are often contained in the dark secrets of wounds. We should never try and build walls around our hearts. We can only receive grace when we are broken. The repressive systems, that are forced on the world, Are created by those who simply cannot bear Existential pain.These pale creatures of fear; These reducers of consciousness continue to Run our societies, and callously stifle Creative spirits and cultural alchemists. They invariably connect and glibly speak To the fascist within us all. 'Obey orders! ' Is the crude mantra implicit in their message. They are now ubiquitous; as they dominate Our screens and our minds. They prefer the cold, Telescopic eyes of surveillance to the warm, Vibrant heart of universal communion. They cannot hear the angels' lamentations. They are doomed to fail. And because they will not look Deeply into their own souls, they cannot hope To transcend the worldly desires that confuse them. Hence, the mystical rose will always elude them.
