Hostage
Hostage.
Intelligence
held hostage.
Buffeted.
Buffeted
at every
turn.
Biology
grabs
by the
throat.
Submission.
Demanding
primordial
allegiance.
Allegiance
to programming.
How designed.
Where
laws
of the
jungle run
roughshod.
Roughshod
over logic,
wisdom,
conscience.
Defaulting
to baser
instincts.
Genetics,
holding
court.
Calling
the shots.
Logic,
wisdom,
conscience,
battling
with the
past.
Battling
with its
core.
