dusting off the ashes

nobody's perfect
but truth denial
universally ubiquitous
stress magnet
watching first hand
civilization collapse
while denying
animal nature
on constant display
can't quash miasma
make music, art
but not science
deterministic pickle
unavailable uncertainty
substance materials
convert to not wholly
insubstantial utility
changing attitude
based on altitude
displaying aptitude
toward solitude
pending responsibility
reassumption by
non-perfect nobodies
