This Imaginary Life Part 1 (The Code of Hammurabi)
There is a lion by the water, the green monkey eyes its prize, communicating fear and mis information, it's the origin of lies.
It's the face of imitation, the mimicking of a warning cry, the art of the done deal by deception, without the answer to the question why.
It's the Code of Hammurabi which I see in play today, the one rule for the law makers, while the others stand in line, obey.
It's the hierarchical structure that the forefathers put in place, the evolving of the sapiens, the shaping of our human race.
It's bending, stretching, moulding, of culture religion, and belief, its power of our pleasure, war, famine, and its grief.
It's the clasping of our hands and praying to an imagined God, hoping our souls are saved, as we become the lighting rod.
It's a regulated reaction, categories that are designed, the ancient caste that's been created, since the beginning of our time.
It's the vicious circle of indifference, the causes and effect, the loop, villainising and ostracising of gender, type or group.
It's the flaming arrow of our history, that burns this environment into shape, changing our very borders to create a new landscape.
It's the building of constitutions, the perpetuated myth of mind, the nature of being nurtured, by this our humankind.
It's the promises of a seat in heaven, within the biblical stories told, the power that's resounding, the promise of the precious metal gold.
It's the us and them that divides us, that drives the push and pull, the philosophical natural order and the way in which we cull.
It's the taming through adverse reaction, the changing of the troop, a thousand years of evolution, the emerging of one group.
Its society evolved, a global village of unite, the finding of a place called wellbeing, to function in this our imaginary life.
It's cognitive dissonance, the sum of all our fears, the mathematical equation that's fractured, in these millennium of years.
But the numbers don't add up as new world takes its place, although it's new peaceful promise, it wears omnipotence as a face.
It's the natural order of things, in which everything has its place, all though it's the science of quantum physics, it still requires a leap of faith.
