For Want of Control
J. Lewis Celeste
- A
- postscript
- from
- our
- protagonist,
- Mr,
- Observare:
Where
- are
- you
- right
- now?
- Where
- are
- we,
- collectively,
- as
- a
- nation?
- Where
- are
- we
- when
- other
- nations
- are
- seizing
- our
- people
- with
- impunity?
- For
- leverage,
- for
- sport,
- for
- mere
- shits
- and
- giggles.
- And
- where
- is
- your
- government?
- Where
- are
- these
- elites
- that
- take
- false
- oaths
- for
- the
- people?
- Power
- changes
- perspective,
- power
- strives
- to
- limit
- access,
- power
- is
- absolute
- for
- those
- in
- control,
- for
- the
- simple
- addiction
- of
- the
- want
- of
- control.
- But
- power
- is
- eventually
- supplanted,
- because
- it
- wasn’t
- good
- enough,
- or
- better,
- forgot
- it’s
- base.
- History
- is
- replete
- with
- examples
- of
- these
- resultant
- transitions.
Mass
- has
- more
- power
- and
- eventually
- breaks
- through
- and
- resets
- the
- pecking
- order.
- A
- bottleneck
- is
- a
- breakpoint.
- If
- the
- pressure
- builds
- beyond
- the
- strength
- of
- the
- aperture,
- disaster
- occurs.
- Are
- we
- nearing
- disaster?
- Are
- we
- already
- there?
- Do
- you
- have
- a
- warm
- and
- fuzzy?
- Everything
- good,
- A-Okay?
I
- do not.
