True Disruption

In any industry

Things continue unchecked and unchanged

For many years.

 

The humans

Who work within

And subscribe to the industry

Become shaped and molded by it.

 

They begin to speak its lingo.

They begin to parrot its tenets.

Their philosophies

And their beliefs

Become cemented by it.

 

They live

Never as free men,

But as prisoners

To a status quo.

 

Then one day,

A new industry comes into existence.

 

A divide is created

Between the old

And the new.

 

Now the traditional ways

Come under scrutiny.

For now there is born an Impetus

For the scrutiny.

 

The new industry

Creates its own beliefs

And conditioning.

 

And soon this

Becomes the new norm.

 

Disruption away from a norm

Toward a new norm . . .

 

Disruption away from a conditioning

Toward a new conditioning . . .

 

While the new norm

And the new conditioning

May provide a greater comfort

And a greater convenience,

This is but a competition.

 

It is but a new

And slightly better . . . flavor.

 

The world becomes accustomed

To the green.

A yellow is born

To woo the world

Away from the green.

 

The world becomes accustomed

To the yellow.

A violet is born

To woo the world

Away from the yellow.

 

True Disruption

Does not add but comfort and convenience.

 

True Disruption

Replace not one dictator

With another.

 

True Disruption

Destroys

All that is destroyable.

 

All that is destroyable

Is that which is unreal.

 

All that is destroyable

Is that which is supported

By smoke and sand.

 

Disruption

Is not a movement

Toward the better.

 

It is a movement toward

The End.

 

Namaste.
