AN OPEN PLATFORM TO DISCUSS THE POSTHUMAN

POSTHUMAN ENDEAVOUR and Captain's Log

Context: Written in 2020 in England, during the outbreak of the Coronavirus
Style: Poetry
Author: Hallidonto Cyborgia
Captain's Log

The dystopian narrative prevails over all,
Plutocratic societies ever pushing the last drop of sweat from the meat labour,
30,000 death toll and rising - rhetoric of a government set out to care,

Snake oil sales person(s) out in force,
Peasants we need you back to work like the Herd you are - casualties what does it matter,
We have dear Wilfred for the jingoism afoot, like whispers on the water...
​
Change is needed,
Needed now. 


Posthuman Endeavour

Sunshine,

Bleeding light upon the quiet street,
Handless gloves on the corner,
An invisible enemy,

Bread line silhouettes,
Scurrying like ant's,
Carrying more than needed,

White eyes and covered face's,
A subtle cough,
Evoking apprehension,

2 meters--tinged droplets,
New residents looking to reside,
Resting in your chest,

Lock that door,
An endless scroll,
Lives lost and tolls rising,

'normality' wasn't working,
Awaiting new consciousness,
A reconfigure of narrative,

No return,
A new road of opportunity,
Rescind the old order,

Move forward with power,
Stay home, Stay safe,
Time to build a better life,
A better world,
A better place.
