Although the darkness of the cave behind me looms invitingly, the stellar light blinding my wary eyes at the mouth snaps me out of my trance. The hordes, masses, and shadows dance behind me, gleeful in self-deciprication and squallor. The visionaries wave ethereally from the beyond, shrouded in blazing white, and I can't help but attempt to raise my arm in effort to respond. As I gaze into the brilliant enlinghtenment, I yearn to join the powerful, the educated, and the free - as this is the self-actualization humanity is meant to achieve. I muster my strength to take a step, but, the indoctrinated shackles of society bind my legs with relation, scrutinize my brain with neccesity, and chain my arms with technology. The truth of the world is wiped from my mind as the shadows consume my soul once more. I am left in hell, looking at heaven - with the final recesses of my brain screaming for freedom.
