Lies of Poets

I wrote a poem today in response to the posted regulations for bullshit paperwork I have to do at work. It is dedicated to the institution I work for.



Weber, Ellul, Polanyi, Kuhn, Plantinga, MacIntyre, Marx

Centralized, discrete, defined, and streamlined
Bureaucracy
The rule of pawns
No king no
Charismatic authority

BE OBJECTIVE
BE COMPLETE
DO NOT USE ABBREVIATIONS
DO NOT CONTRADICT YOURSELF
KEEP IT RELEVANT

Technique applied
Norms derived
No human soul
Can these demands supply!

NO ASSUMPTIONS NO
PERSONAL OPINIONS
KEEP IT PROFESSIONAL

Only keep in mind
The personal coefficient
The Paradigm shift
The properly basic fundament of
Noesis and the
Fallacy of Objectivism, bitch

THESE RECORDS ARE OVERSEEN BY THE STATE

Yah, but life pushes back
In this larger than
Life thesis-war

You wither away
'Cuase we synthesize, revolution-
Eyes to see you
Dehumanize no more

  1. Here, I wrote a haiku (I think):

    F*** society,
    Man is a duality.
    Nature is our womb.
