out of the Kafka legacy
in the bog of the formalism of society
reducing you to a number
and letting you easily disappear
without a trace with no one missing you –
That's what has become of humanity,
ruining all nature in the process
of dehumanization and technification
from a human being to the monster of homo sovieticus
infecting the world with robotic inhumanity.
So let me out and let me breathe,
buried alive in a coffin in the church yard
waking up and brought to nothing for nothing,
against my will and without my cooperation.
I reject my number of society and my ID,
refusing to be reduced into a plastic card or into a chip,
since I will remain alive,
even if the whole human society goes under.

Buried alive
Stuck in the mud and buried alivein the bog of the formalism of society
reducing you to a number
and letting you easily disappear
without a trace with no one missing you –
That's what has become of humanity,
ruining all nature in the process
of dehumanization and technification
from a human being to the monster of homo sovieticus
infecting the world with robotic inhumanity.
So let me out and let me breathe,
buried alive in a coffin in the church yard
waking up and brought to nothing for nothing,
against my will and without my cooperation.
I reject my number of society and my ID,
refusing to be reduced into a plastic card or into a chip,
since I will remain alive,
even if the whole human society goes under.
