A Meme of a Meme of a Meme

The world today Every thing at our fingertips A meme factory Consuming everything And feeding everyone A rapid endless stream Satisfies the insatiable For the briefest instant But robs us all Of lifetimes Of discovery And so we are initiated Taken out of our mind Into another Stages of the path Snakes and ladders Life hacks And buried treasure Whatever it is that holds Generates And shares the meme The light within A hall of mirrors Knows no bounds And needs no introduction And still the child discovers Their way Turning fear into familiarity Confusion to wisdom And the simple joy of following A path Older than time (9/8/24)
