Senseless agencies and formulated aspirations coöperate in the work of driving mankind from its old anchorage. Sometimes the period of change is an age of hope, sometimes it is an age of despair.
- Alfred N. Whitehead
You’re given the weight of pain while Ayn asks you to shrug
The economist suggest to invest
The father points out God in the struggle
Breaking waves keep the body cold
The hope of tomorrow makes you weak and strong
What of this pain? What of a smile in its face?
The comedian asks you to laugh
But to what end?
The doctor calls you brave and laments the casualty of war
The recipe cut in half
The life cut short
Lived long enough to know
The living isn’t enough
HR tells you the company isn’t at fault
The elected official speaks for the people
Your mind slips into an unknown equation
And you live forever
