THE NECESSITY OF A COMMITMENT TO CONSCIOUSNESS

Civilization is bounded by
the conscious commitment
of mind, to truth.

And frontiers of degeneracy
are not pioneered
Until resistant minds refuse
the consciousness of what is true.

Those who know, but choose to serve
themselves, and not integrity,
Have buried truth, which died, entombed,
in every slain society.
