Lemmings To a Cliff

Instincts stored from antiquity Leather bound books; library in the mind Beautiful tragic collections and revisions The conundrum of neurology; conflict presides Endowed with supreme cognition Cursed, condemned by the residue of blind drives Irreconcilable emotional juxtapositions Humanities ironical demise Profoundly ignorant, unabashed, and indifferent Audacious opinions of uninformed certitudes In the end, passions rule reason The instinctual beast can’t be subdued Like Lemmings to a cliff running blindly Chasing those with no knowledge or esteem If only one to be the wiser Perhaps we awake from a really bad dream
