Man's Abolition Of Man

No longer a teacher 
a programmer ... 
your gift to persuade
is gone

Referring to students
as charges and dolts
your power to control
is strong

To dictate
humanity
you must give up your own
controlled to then control

Blind to the moment
deaf to the past
defaming your nature
 — killing your soul
