Progress

Progress

A Poem by The Poet of Black Wings

Our knowledge of the
World and its wonders
Grows daily.
So do we.
In mind
And responsibility.
Every new secret we steal,
Every new machine we make,
Furthers our own
Evolution.

We learn,
Better and grander ways still,
How to control the world
And recreate nature.
Even improve upon
Her.

Some claim,
We should not play god.
My response,
The only reply necessary,
Is the truth.
We do not play god.
We are gods.
And as gods,
It is our responsibility to
Protect the world,
And make it a paradise.

Or something close.
