ZOMBIE BRAINS

Human Intelligence
Finds itself in a state of 
Metaphysical eclipse:
It attempts to explain flow
By studying the static.

To explain life
By studying the non-living
Consciousness
By the Unconscious
And Morality
By the Amoral.

Trained to expect only
The elementary urges of 
Human nature:
Freud’s Pleasure
Nietzsche’s Will to Power
Or Marx’s Materialism

Most of us have abandoned
Intuition
The truths of spiritual life:
The Fundamental and
Universal impulses
Of Life itself.

Major Arcanum of the Tarot
