I flinch from the
Neon glare of the reasoning
Error: Has it truly been missed or has
Xanadu’s illusory appeal overridden its
Precedence? Has survival bred this need, this
Longing for ignorance when it aides a goal
In spite of eventual retribution by that same willfully
Concealed flaw, a trap of their own creation.
Antithetical to reason, to self preservation, yet
Barring an improbable epiphany, the
Lingering conflict will be cast on another –
Error mortared to error by determined ignorance
