I used to think, it was just priority,

Why babies, can rule over me,

But no, its still, mostly the same,

A lot of it, is still hierarchy,

Technology, architecture, the economy,

Mathematics, biology, psychology,

Stolen content warning: this tale belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences elsewhere.

Anthropology, history, art,

These, are still, great ideas,

Love, is still, a great beast,

A lot, of these, great,

Knowledgeable, unfathomable,

Entities, have, taken in,

Allowed, into, their hollowed gates,

Many souls, how much,

They can, take from them,

Is up to them, it would still be,

Much better, than the dead,

The zombies, who haunt the streets,

Everyone, has their own fate,

Our father, who operates,

The universe, above,

Still loves us, or are there,

Greater hells, lesser planes,

Than this, where, the heavens,

Don’t care, to look, care, or observe,

Where, viruses, take hold,

Where, the make-up,

Of the universe,

Atoms, or am I,

Just old.
