What we need
are new traditions
with revived significance.
New rituals
not empty, like the old.
Newness!
Maybe even new taboos….
NEW MYTHOLOGY
DIFFERENT ROLE MODELS,
IMPROVED ARCHETYPES.
CAREFULLY CONSTRUCTED TO
IMBUE IN THE MASS PSYCHE
A DISTASTE FOR MACHISMO
(ULYSSES REPLACED BY EINSTIEN)
What we need
are new Einsteins.
Let’s reexamine
the concept of newness
and its opposite.
While we’re at it
let’s reexamine
everything!

What a shrewd observation portrayed in a magical poem. Well done! 🙂 Looking at the fact how the gay communities were perpetually discriminated by the Judeo-Christian-Islam traditions that even their right to marry is denied, perhaps we also need a new God?
