Myopic science

Myopic science

A Poem by Soren

For four hundred thousand years man had fears dealt with by spears
Only in the last couple of centuries, fought with chemical technologies
Discovery of germs and parasitic worms 
Added chemicals to water, the bacteria to slaughter 
Poisons for the bugs, for illness drugs 
Our immunity, lost with scientific impunity
On one thing to focus science's hocus-pocus
With its constricture it can't see the bigger picture

Thank you Thomas I appreciate it
And what have we accomplished with technologies? Better, more enhanced ways to kill each other.
That is hocus-pocus at its most dark magical.
