Humankind - 2018

Humankind cannot commune directly
With Nature's beauty as in ancient times.
Distant from this fragile world of blue and green
It schemes to create utopian designs.
Behind elaborate social masks it hides
Within artificial sanctuaries.
It's fixated with rampant technology,
And the faux, arbitrary order of
Reified market forces, that perceive
Not the whirling dust of catastrophe.
It cannot live side by side with death's domain.
It consoles itself with monetary gain
And clings to cold, systematic science.
It is divorced from rituals that once
Embraced the power of sun, moon and rain.
In order to forget its profound pain,
It chases myriad pleasures endlessly.
It no longer needs the mystical creeds.
It no longer shares the sacred bread and wine.
It courts the secular and shuns the Divine.
