HUMAN ABILITY to REASON, HUMAN RIGHT to CONSENT - Proem & Poem No. 50

Most likely to be published early 2018, my 10th book currently entitled; 100 Proems & Poems on the HUMAN ABILITY to REASON, HUMAN RIGHT to CONSENT & Other Neglected Matters. The following will probably be included upon further editing, and front cover below merely a working version....


PROEM & POEM No. 50 - To Emote is Common and Constant / 2nd Reprise


      What elitist person or group can accurately as well ethically presume to be so divinely endowed while humanly limited, to manage and manipulate another person’s or another group’s individual actions expressed thus the latter’s individual consent decided upon individual reasoning deliberated amid individual emotion spurred and individual instinct stirred. Are not these elitists subject to the same human equation, that is, their individual actions similarly expressed thus the former’s individual consent similarly decided upon individual reasoning similarly deliberated amid individual emotion similarly spurred and individual instinct similarly stirred.

      However obvious, it should be duly noted. Gravely lacking omnipresence, omniscience hence omnipotence, humanity operates in time, along inescapable timelines, therefore limited in movement, knowledge as well ability/power, consequently the constant propensity for error and excess. Concisely, if not infinite, then quite finite are all individuals, including all self-acclaimed elites of various sorts. Yet to complicate further, all are burdened and simultaneously blessed with human instinct, human emotion and the Peculiar Human Ability to Reason, inseparably the Singular Human Right to Consent or Not Consent.

Forlorn inwardly, although swilling outwardly, excessively
Errantly hence monstrously, ah societies’ odes perversely
Per illogic upon hypotheses, fitly, egotistic preferences
Covetously driven as the given, arrogating for conveniences

---

Come let us Reason. Peace is always a Choice.
