Mortal Talk
/Much of mortal talk is an unrecognized form of adjusting oneself to the inevitable.
A would-be social critic once stated, “All aggression is taught,” but he failed to identify the extra-universal college from whence originates such instruction.
If reality and the truth had but one face, Man would be the genus, “genius.”
If it had but two faces, we would all go free;
but as it now stands, your passes are only good for Tuesday,
and that’s the very day the House of Mirrors is closed.
The many label as “miraculous” that which they don’t understand, while the Few do just the opposite.
One possible slogan for the Real Revolutionist would be, “Moderation is ultimately insufficient.” (The words could be also applied to the ordinary, if they were then understood to mean that “moderation” does not offer the necessary spark of motivational guilt.)
