Masks of civilized fools
Civilized fools, imprisoned by our own design,
we dance upon the stage of imagined realities.
Beneath our polished exteriors,
lurks the wild, untamed soul within.
We wear grandiose garments of suitability,
pretending to fit into the mold of societal expectations.
Yet, deep in the shadows, the truth resides,
yearning to break free from its gilded cage.
We chase after the illusions of status and success,
blinded by the glittering promises of civilization.
But in our quest for conformity,
we lose touch with our authentic selves.
Oh, the irony of our civilized existence,
striving to appear refined, while stifling our essence.
We deny the primal instincts that course through our veins,
suppressing the very nature that makes us human.
Let us cast off the masks we wear,
and embrace the untamed spirit within.
For it is in the rawness of our being,
that true beauty and wisdom reside.
