  • Dinosauria, We ( Born Into This ) By Charles Bukowski
    a few things i wanna mention here:
    i didn't use my voice here because Charles Bukowski poems always sound better with Tom O' Bedlam's voice and it just felt right to put his voice here.
    another thing, the style that i have used in the video is obviously inspired by illneas.
    w o r d s //
    Born like this
    Into this
    As the chalk faces smile
    As Mrs. Death laughs
    As the elevators break
    As political landscapes dissolve
    As the supermarket bag boy holds a college degree
    As the oily fish spit out their oily prey
    As the sun is masked
    We are
    Born like this
    Into this
    Into these carefully mad wars
    Into the sight of broken factory windows of emptiness
    Into bars where people no longer speak to each other
    Into fist fights that end as shootings and knifings
    Born into this
    Into hospitals which are so expensive that it's cheaper to die
    Into lawyers who charge so much it's cheaper to plead guilty
    Into a country where the jails are full and the madhouses closed
    Into a place where the masses elevate fools into rich heroes
    Born into this
    Walking and living through this
    Dying because of this
    Muted because of this
    Castrated
    Debauched
    Disinherited
    Because of this
    Fooled by this
    Used by this
    Pissed on by this
    Made crazy and sick by this
    Made violent
    Made inhuman
    By this
    The heart is blackened
    The fingers reach for the throat
    The gun
    The knife
    The bomb
    The fingers reach toward an unresponsive god
    The fingers reach for the bottle
    The pill
    The powder
    We are born into this sorrowful deadliness
    We are born into a government 60 years in debt
    That soon will be unable to even pay the interest on that debt
    And the banks will burn
    Money will be useless
    There will be open and unpunished murder in the streets
    It will be guns and roving mobs
    Land will be useless
    Food will become a diminishing return
    Nuclear power will be taken over by the many
    Explosions will continually shake the earth
    Radiated robot men will stalk each other
    The rich and the chosen will watch from space platforms
    Dante's Inferno will be made to look like a children's playground
    The sun will not be seen and it will always be night
    Trees will die
    All vegetation will die
    Radiated men will eat the flesh of radiated men
    The sea will be poisoned
    The lakes and rivers will vanish
    Rain will be the new gold
    The rotting bodies of men and animals will stink in the dark wind
    The last few survivors will be overtaken by new and hideous diseases
    And the space platforms will be destroyed by attrition
    The petering out of supplies
    The natural effect of general decay
    And there will be the most beautiful silence never heard
    Born out of that.
    The sun still hidden there
    Awaiting the next chapter.

      @@markceamusika humanity will take complex life with it. None of the previous extinction events have been this quick. Even the comet didn't have a rate of temp increase or species extinction like this one. There may not be another chapter. We should try and stop this one since it is us doing it. Even if only to try for aesthetic reasons. Too many people use "life will grow back" as an excuse for apathy. It's an assumption that it will.

Add more people and more money, you get corruption, this is true for any economy. Globalism is communism run by the deep state and is no good for anybody except for the ones in power because they own the production and the output of goods. At least in free market capitalism you can barder and trade.
