Avatar blues
Blue is beautiful,
especially when it is natural,
as in those precious beings
living there among the trees
of Utopian world Pandora
in perfect symbiosis
with all living things
with deeper harmony and empathy
than any human being here on Earth,
a monster race of egoism and strife,
a self-destructive and unnatural absurdity
which most of all is qualified for war
and secondly for greed –
that's all their history is all about;
and yet, this blue race in the sky
was actually invented here by man,
a wonderful result of his imagination,
like an ideal and alternative humanity
who hasn't yet committed those mistakes
that ruined mankind's history.
And that is all that we can learn of,
our own creativeness and fantasy,
the striving for idealism that never left us
but made us go on in spite of all
against our own destructiveness
to maybe one day triumph after all?
That actually may be our only hope.
