AT THE PRECIPICE OF HISTORY

'It's sad to be alive at this time,'

she tweets of people making Hitler salutes

as Bannon debates at Oxford Union.

Sad, yes; but this our fight,

a battle for humanity

to be fought now, so that

others can live in happier times.

The poison of the Fascists,

the global warming and the sixth mass extinction,

the oligarchic capitalism

- our fights, one fight

against a many-headed Hydra.

A battle to be fought

so that others

can be alive at happier times -

a battle to be won

so that there will be later times,

when people can forget

that there ever was this struggle,

this abyss in human history we face

and must cross. If we

fail at this precipice,

this will be the last of times.
