URBAN DIALOGUES - CITY CITY BANG BANG

The other day a good friend of mine was discussing virtues and vices of man in contemporary times, a discussion loosely philosophical by urban standards. Nothing serious at all if one doesn't put philosophy and seriousness in the same bracket. In fact I would be repelled by the type which doesn't exactly need the stoicism with which luminous intellectuals offer viewpoints, with self-contradictions so polarised that the average brain gets shocked to silence.. And the seriousness persists... 

Unfortunately a friend of my friend appeared from nowhere. Actually it was a mere coincidence (one of those  which happen coincidentally), but this frail figure, luminous definitely as I could increasingly see a faint halo behind his head  during the roadside discourse that followed, hearing the word "Virtuosity" (I don't remember which one of us uttered the word),  started on a monologue : 

"The stage of evolution that human consciousness has reached with a lot of philosophical fanfare, has witnessed, in the last 97 years, two well-planned, well-conspired, well-cheered episodes of the most cruelly nauseating mass genocide our lot has ever concocted. Each of them have been 4-5 years long , each of them having been injected with a lot of patriotic fervour by cheerleading women, the elderly and children (no matter how much they might have been influenced by subconscious acts of transglobal "mass suggestion") to serve "political purposes".. 

At this point I had the urge to cut him through, but the suspectedly seeming veteran of many a dialogue was too quick for me, and continued : 

"On that note, As I curse to myself often, "warring means to serve politicking ends" by an animal species capable of performing the most dangerous act of predation driven by physiological reflexes other than hunger and preservation of species & self-sustainence, in battle-fields or private bedrooms... We have a long abandoned Virtuosity in our journey forward..

I  fell like a dead tree...........
