Notes About The Poem

An Orwellian Perception

An Orwellian Perception

   “Don’t worry, the ‘Thought Police’ are with you.”
To bring stability, harmony, tranquility,
and hope for your offspring, fresh out of the fertility bank.
So be leery of persuasive genetic failures
who mate their genes for sexual gratification
to produce inferior genetic subhumans.

   “For we are the chosen and are not to be manipulated”
by these mutant genes, which, like viruses, penetrate your heredity
and gobble up life at the trough without respect for the future
and will make you one of them—a cancer to the living chosen.
But we are here, and when you come to your senses,
you will agree to preserve the species here and hereafter.

   “My presence is infinitesimal, and yet, I sacrifice willingly
   prodo-genetics to ensure the survival of the species with prodigy.”
