The Golden Age
They call this
the golden age.
Technology—techne from the Greeks—
in full thrive, humanity at its peak. We are
the survivors. The dawn of the fittest.
We have no fear: we claw, we kill, we progress.
We are the children of progress.
Weed out the weak, wreak war, wreak havoc. Apocalypse now. We are the survivors.
Cocaine screen addictions, numb
to the spasms. Euphoric life overdose.
Pool parties—James Gatz. High bodhi count.
Mind Aristotle—mind your own business.
Here we progress.
Here we progress.
Here we progress.
25 June 1940.
“[The] most glorious victory
of all time.” - Adolf Hitler
They called that the golden age.
Remember the
progress.
We are the survivors.
