Should we use some science to cut through the fog
Should we use some art or science to illuminate the bog?
Should we use some artistry or pseudo science to eliminate or produce the smog?
Compared and contrasted with that hand clapping screaming shouting
Endlessly enthusiastic old time very old time and extremely old time religion with the dancing girls and clowns and singing preachers saying "do not worry for the now" but...but..but. but:
Again I fall into some several billion pieces
Cut up by the glass shards of imperfect faith or some not entirely
Humanistic thesis regarding man himself, his destiny, his life, his Future
His childhood's or his adolescence's end:
I should sit therelike a child far better eating Reese's pieces
The family 'talented' one (or idiot) far removed from their rituals
And the thick thick thick thick scientific, political theological family oriented artistic sports oriented and cultural theses...
Oh those nutty upwardly aspiring famiies all around the world!!
And the ones whom they provoked into spiralling down
They are educated and sophisticated and well reasoned and astute:
But almost none of them are ever in any sense remotely . cute.
Well not entirely true: resentful <bad me bad me bad us>
But dont' they tend to make an uncleanuppable mess of me and you?
