Aspirants

poem by: John Prophet
Written on Aug 05, 2021

Aspirants.
Baseline.
Animals.
Animals
at heart.
Mammals
in fact.
No
different.
Same as
any other.
Civilization
designed
around the
animal.
Made in
animals
nature.
Image.
Basic,
raw
behavior.
Intelligence
sophistication.
Grappling
with baser
instincts.
Animal
instincts.
War.
Internal war.
Pulling away.
Away from
the animal.
Aspirants.
