An a Lesson - Ca

Angels observe in un-articulated anguish from above,
 anxiety afflicted by appalling accelerated ambition of the aggregate  
that redefines the archaic, apocalyptical allure 
 driving humanity to its brink of active self annihilation;
those moments of antiquated adversarial abstractions
 when history goes awry in its accursedness
 revels the atrocious alienation of poverty ignored,
that hidden appetency wherein
 the very acquiescence of its anticipated allure, 
 blinds us in our astigmatism that can anesthetize living well;
 the assuage ascendancy of life's pain and amplified existence
briefly lingers, dies 
 as we absolve ourselves with abstinence
 surpassing the more auspicious moments lost
 when we could have been assertively aggrandized, 
to become
 more augmented humanity.
