Absurdity

How little we, as humans being, developed with time

Knowledge seen, not derived, still hiding in Plato’s cave

We come out to work and are caught in the bright lights

Bugs buzzing about, festering carrion beliefs, accepting blind faith

All senses working, we know but refuse to make efforts

To understand, to bask in the light, to be

Instead

Light frightened plight

Back into the cave

Ourselves to hide
