“The Icarian Impulse With fruit of the knowledge tree, We took a bite from our world, Gaining serpent's destructive kiss, Malicious shortcuts paved "good." The shock setting of a precedent, Akin to committing bloody murder, Shedding the skin of equilibrium, As a lethal new dawn descends. Promethean self-replicating beings; Sacrilegious idols mirror our image, Synthetic, unsympathetic sentience, Masochistic puzzles of self-immolation.” — Stewart Stafford
The Icarian Impulse
With fruit of the knowledge tree,
We took a bite from our world,
Gaining serpent's destructive kiss,
Malicious shortcuts paved "good."
The shock setting of a precedent,
Akin to committing bloody murder,
Shedding the skin of equilibrium,
As a lethal new dawn descends.
Promethean self-replicating beings;
Sacrilegious idols mirror our image,
Synthetic, unsympathetic sentience,
Masochistic puzzles of self-immolation.
