Chris Floyd, “Memento Mori: Looking at the Face”
“Memento Mori: Looking at the Face”
by Chris Floyd
“It has always seemed the strangest thing to me, the way that people will lacerate others - with cruelty, with lies, with dirty dealing, with petty spite, with cold neglect, with violence, violence on the body and the soul - just to gain, for just a moment, some bestial sense of dominance, on one level or another, from the highest to the lowest, turning the inexpressible miracle of existence, this paradise of consciousness and sensation we've been given, into a stinking, churned-up living hell.
"I keep looking at the face
That keeps staring back at me
The hard and haunted visage
Of my mortality...”
