Silent reading project
This poem is about Aldous Huxley's "Brave New World" a book about colonial conformism and human segregation. I recommend this book to people who have a good perchance for dark literature as this book does get dark at some points. With all its talk of sterility and cold machinery.
Loss of natural rights
Genesis becomes a myth
God's ways are immoral
Cold centrifuges spin the lives
Of those born of steel tubes
Human Condition is no more
Alpha Omega Beta
Same but still segregated
Savages born of the mother's womb…
Forgotten, caged, unloved,
Oh great Ford of all who has made
We shall obey thee
