just like Jesus on the river
or wherever
we took leaps around
what should
and ought
and just bought
an illusion
of immortality
awake but adrift
from reality
not so much more real
than the dream we could feel
god-like gift
crystal clear brutality
waves upon waves
of supercharged high
unquestioned and undenied
because if we died
of course
we would merely soar
in the eyes of the sheep
huddling before
our towering shapes
knowing that
what separates simians
from lesser apes
was what draw the line
between us and them
between wine and grapes
what made us divine

we grew with those lies
our delusion of might
it's funny how such things
can change overnight

An interesting look into

the divine and those that look to it. I liked the wordplay and random rhyme here. The loose structure intimates a crumbling. Well done.

A lesson for mankind

Captivating and tight as usual.

One point, should "was what draw the line"

be either "draws" or "drew"?
