Hierarchy

Fly high my child
For you will see
greener pastures
Crying underneath

Sun races by
whispers a secret
Inequality exists
In every space
With god's grace

Butterflies kiss
Lovers celebrate
Rich and poor
Unite and separate
Linking it all
Hierarchy of flaws
Seeping through
Relatively true

The universe began
Almighty accident
Traces of life
Creating divides

Power structures
Jobs of progress
Specialized process
Hierarchy emerges
Shadow of light
President and pauper
Lover and lecher

Seeking pleasure
Desire to measure
Less or more
Dignity holds
Loving foes

Start early
Others follow
Create folly
Others wallow
Path dependency
Painful reality

Question the ruler
Revolution again
Animal farm
Sweeter norms
Similar lines
Converge at infinity
Follow shamelessly
Maintaining hierarchy

Feel the pain
Different hearts
Constant of change
Willful exchange
Hierarchy of equalities
Contradictory reality

Beyond hierarchy
Universal truth
Equality of death
Transcended next
Nature's request
Laying patterns
Tempting man
Discoveries stand

Man and divine
Maintain divide
When light seeps
Equality reached
Hierarchy breaks
Enlightened phase

Technology or miracle
History will tell
In the interim
Poetry fails
Hierarchy maintains
Suffering entails
