The Dousing

A World Drifting to Less

By Alivia EvansPublished 8 years ago • 1 min read

We are saturated in our consolation of a rotary picture which

continuously retells itself . . .

Are we drifting forward or is the illusion

merely reoccurrences of our ancestors?

Clouted in coldness, dazed hideaways

through snaking passages - the

euphoria of intoxication,

contemplating the rationality of it all.

Can we control stronger mindsets or are we only composed of lost moral

and the decomposition of other triggered

by ourselves?

Twines of fanciful traditions once taught

to us forgotten by the shortfall of

mortality;

the pedestal of beliefs fought against,

demolished for - weakening our

freedoms and sensuality . . .

Are those the catastrophic terms to

which we lay our foundation upon?

Perhaps contemporary life cannot be told

through simple aspects.
