A Brave New World

A xerox copy of a species has become more prevalent in two-thousand seventeen- There are different processes used to produce a genetically identical biological entity. Cloning sheep is the most common form of duplicating genes, cells and tissues- but there is so much more to this procedure, so much unknown science and unethical issues. Natural and artificial cloning are both types of doubling organisms, mammals and plants, and so many people are against these procedures, they riot and protest; they rave and they rant. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A book was written in between the rough times of World War one and World War two- “A Brave New World” was a controversial glimpse in to the future, but tell me, was it really true? There was an institution playing an essential role in the artificial reproduction, and social conditioning of the world's population based on sex and soma consumption. Out of control with unprotected sex and brainwashing situations, they tampered with the natural way of life, tested the actual meaning of creation. Humans were being created and conditioned according to the system of this society, and a man named John known as “The Savage” believed in morals with propriety. He was against the orders of this new way of life that was dramatically created, and made it well known that this human cloning was abhorred and hated. After a riot, John resorted to fighting against them with violence, then was tormented and brainwashed and lived moments of defiance. He took soma and ended up having wild sex as he was always against, and to him this way of life was despicable and didn’t make sense. In the end, he took his life repulsed by what he had done, he had turned into a monster, one he promised he wouldn’t become. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Human cloning is tampering with the true meaning of natural creation, and I hope in the future it never becomes a common situation.

I hope so too Laura and I love your thought provoking poem. John came from a 'natural' family so his perspective was unique and idealistic; he rejected the values of a world that didn't fit him but he couldn't change, a world that had perhaps already conditioned him. And that's what scares me about the world today, how already deeply conditioned we are without even realizing it:) Amitiés
