Poly-Sci-Fly

It seems we've come up with numerous definitions,
    For life, and what it all means.
From the biological to the philosophical,
    And all the various strata in between.

The scholarly sciences, may include the aspects
    That need to respirate, regulate, and replicate.
While philosophers might wonder how we
    Facilitate, proliferate, or just deal with our hate.
Recently I've seen our evolution, along the
    Political spectrum grow and accumulate.
Where fantasy has driven false narratives,
    And chaos remained for those to speculate.

Will life now be defined by the social-economic,
     Or will it divide our very structure again?
Since these interactions can certainly be the death of us all,
    And life may never be the same as it has been.
