Beast

poem by: E.J. Waling
Written on Feb 08, 2023

Beast.
Reflecting.
Looking
back.
Technology
offers
introspection.
Totality
of  the
human
race.
Preprogrammed
genetics.
Forces
views we’d
rather not
see,
believe.
Screens
in face.
Reenforcement.
Feed back
loop.
Reflecting
inner
demons.
Coming
to grips.
Wrestling
with the
human
condition.
Looking
deep into
the animal,
the soul.
Bright light
shown,
innocence
lost.
Innocence.
Never was.
Savage.
Aggressive.
Tearing
things
apart.
Nature
of the
beast
within!
