A Plea of the Dying


Since the age evolution struck, man has been my fondest child, and I, his ever devoted mother. I’ve rejoiced in his success, grieved in his pain, bled in his greed and was plundered by his every reign. For I have seen him unfold his secrets like the seasons reveal their shades – slowly, silently, evidently. Has it been easy? I dare not be blinded by love and agree! But has it even been easy for anyone? I think not. A mother’s heart is forever delusional, I think.

Amidst death one finds life, and amidst disparity is hope. Deceived by the charms of fate, destiny and eventuality he went beyond bounds till the time animals were now perceived to be more human than man himself. Coaxing and aspiring to become undisputed, filling spaces of emotions with superficial pride, hideous acts in the name of faith – man himself would never step back from deponing that this world is purely anthropogenic – such is the blindness of his humility. May the spirits bless his naiveté’s.
