TAO Pt 2

(We are always conquering nature "Human nature" will be the last part of nature To surrender to man The battle will indeed be won but who, precisely, will have won it? For the power of man to make himself what he pleases means, As we have seen, the power of some men to make other men What they please) We living in a brave new world Full of strange new cravings A little less dope And a lot more vaping STI's and other viral sensations Just 'cause it's new That don't make it innovation I had to switch up the vista Flickr to Insta Flipped thru some pictures Man I clicked thru some sisters Seen a Tegan and a Sara Sabrina and a Lara A Venus and Serena And a Tia and Tamera Im still looking for smthg Im not seeing in the mirror Will a million pictures Really help me see it any clearer tho? Are we looking for a miracle Or merely pheromones Or just not being alone Growing weary? Was talking all this theory With a woman named Siri I nearly fell in love So I had to pull the plug Seems kinda like we're drug fiends When what we stream Hits the blood stream Touching us deep Beneath the touch screens (The main objection is that if man chooses To treat himself as raw material Raw material he will be We've been trying to have it both ways It is impossible Either we are rational spirit Obliged forever to obey The absolute values of "the tao" Or else we are mere nature To me kneaded and cut into new shapes For the pleasures of masters) We've been trapped in this fast-paced rat race And now they turned the race track into ad space Tracked, traced when I open up a map: waze Or any chat-based app In the last days Where have all the poets gone? Well can't hold our focus long enough With these emoticons and Pokemon gos Trying to go beyond those You gotta be, like, borderline Obi wan! Bro, on my damn applications Brand activations Got it all now Only don't have the patience I'm not saying let's make a shift back to basics But aint no spaceships got' take us out this matrix What we face is bonafide global-wide changes Old ways is gone Cool but what are they replaced with? Business as usual? Business is brutal And it's so big now That all resistance is futile Let that dream die quick And take a uber to the funeral You could Facebook it live And find the grave on google Refusal to comply Can result in your removal From a future they devise 'Cause they decide who's useful (It is not that they are bad men They are not men at all Stepping outside the tao They have stepped into the void Nor are their subjects necessarily unhappy men They are not men at all They are artifacts Man's final conquest has proved to be The abolition of man)
