in states of savagery

Take your pick—any of the horrible events preceding today.

The wars, the catastrophes, disasters natural and unnatural. 

Every single one was a precursor to right here, right now. 

Is this present moment so bad? So irredeemable? 

We don’t just stand on the shoulders of giants, we stand on the shoulders of villains and devils.

Thank you. Let’s have a great day.
