Primal

poem by: E.J. Waling
Written on Sep 21, 2023

Primal.
Humanity
screams.
Primal
animal.
Deep
seated
code.
Coursing
throughout.
Savage
nature.
Still.
Feral 
beast.
Molded.
Genetically
sculpted.
Environmentally
created.
Survivor.
Battling
for life,
and limb.
Savage
incarnate.
Moments
away from
extinction.
Always
on
edge.
Modernity
ripe.
Beast
out of
context.
Many ways
destruction.
Primitive
instincts.
Technological
miracles.
Dance
of the
future.
Basic
instincts
entrenched.
Battling
self.
Teetering.
Navigating,
razors edge.
Future
uncertain.
Edge of
control.
