Meta-history Veers into the Realm of Philosophy

Meta-history veers into the realm of philosophy

Events gloriously progress towards their allegory

Petrarch elegantly dances on his poetic pages

Louis discovers a cellular microcosm in a frame

Stories purposefully direct towards their finality

Proud cultures reconsider their lasting hegemony

An Italian friar placidly converses with Ancients

Popular sports enshrined in Chicago monument

Peoples unseemly stand on the shoulders of giants

Great men of yesteryear before great odds defiant

Appalling conditions on the streets of Calcutta

On Virginia ground slavishly pointing a berretta

Enlightened ideas dramatically sing la Marseillaise

Americans transported by French bouillabaisse

Ambien the regretted child of mistaken naturalism

A soccer match degenerates in a rage of nationalism

The Treasury depletes for excessive consumption

Rapture proponents eagerly hope for Redemption

Comets circling the cosmos message Armageddon

Scientists cumbersomely analyze phytoplanktons

Philosophy painstakingly gives birth to technology

Barrels of oil geo-politically war on Arabian effigy

Nietzsche prophetically announces the Overman

Olympic athletes vindicate the coming superhuman

Supposedly, progress curves towards nigh-infinite

The march towards moral perfection is indefinite

Real peace is best left to the ideal of diplomacy

Sufficiency seeps to diffuse popular complacency

The iPhone a footnote on the dunes of history

Technology confused with progressive ascendancy

King innocently stumbles for America’s conscience

National higher education invisibly loses its essence

Patriots the dying puppets of political interests

Cholesterol brings eight pounds to their final arrest

The President of the world seen in charming smile

Louis Vuitton revisits decades of clothing style

Science, technology, politics lose their bearings

The world knowingly finds its center in Beijing

Humanity’s spiritual capital at the crossroads

History attempts to re-capture its forgotten God.
