Elon Musk: A Diseased Mind
by Irene Fowler
Elon Musk
Flying too close to the sun
Like Icarus, his day is done
A depraved billionaire, with a heart of stone
In his evil wake lie shattered lives, of decency robbed and stripped to the bone
Gleefully, wielding a bare, bloodletting, chainsaw to hopes and dreams
Knows, feels, tastes and hears nothing, of the average man's, travails and silent screams.
**
Steeped in apartheid and a High Priest of white supremacy
His modern-day ethos, an integral part of white South Africa's abominable legacy
Of plundering, looting and straight-up rapacious theft
Their 24/7 oppression a cause-celebre; causing mankind to be of dignity and hope, bereft
Apartheid's sadistic punishment of innoents equalling crimes against humanity
Safe-harboured by America's body politic and elevated by the pompous, high on their supply of empty vanity.
**
Yet aiming to fly towards the benevolent, life-giving golden orb
A force all-powerful, all-just and all-humble; earth's resplendent sun
Its glorious rays, shining on all freely, faithfully and with prejudice to none
The Musk-kite is ripped to shreds as with a sharp dagger and merciless jackknife
In a fool's errand to reach the source and giver of all planetary life
Lacking self-awareness of his direct opposition, as he unfolds untold ruinous, stress and strife.
**
This Afrikaners' naked hubris and callous cruelty, too much for a kind, loving sun to bare
Aurora, issues a thundering, shattering 'thus far and no further' dare
To the richest man on earth; an icy put-down and belittling slap in the face
As SpaceX rocket ships blow up and turn to dust, yet another dose of apt disgrace
A stunning dearth of charity and truth, on permanent, panoramic display
Yet, his billionaire anti-human heart, shuts out the sun of righteousness and fails to see the light of day.
**
The brotherhood of Narcissus; a select club of deadly and dubious distinction, evincing diseased minds
Devoid of any trace of human empathy and good will to mankind
Champions of chaos and slaves; shackled to demented brutality and run-amok greed
They orchestrate ceaseless diabolical attacks on the powerless and the countless in need
Whilst vaunting their unhinged plans of space migration and immortality
All inanely despise the indelible words written on the pearly-gates to eternity
What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his own soul?

Epilogue
"Apartheid, a system of racial segregation and discrimination enforced in South Africa, caused immense suffering and injustice, leading to the denial of basic human rights, economic hardship, and social division, ultimately resulting in a legacy of trauma and inequality.
The scars of Apartheid run deep, leaving a legacy of segregation, discrimination and inequality." - Google
