Centuries of Lights (rolling stresses poem written in 2008)

(an explanation of kshatriya behaviour
in the context of becoming)

All of us are kamikaze pilots.
It's a matter of which aircraft carrier to ram
before deactivation,
with fewer mangled bodies & torn, twisted bulkheads
in most cases.

 Maybe tyrant Kings are better than their absence,
better than the Tweedledumdee crypto-oligarchic State.

For Progress is:
the Reign of Terror or a Bonapartist Plebiscite,
gunshots in the woods behind a planned community.
