Description The Curse of the Earth - "The Mark of Cain"

"a burdened birthright
to trap you in where no god
will have known you prayed"

The Mark of Cain presents to us the truth of who we really are, what we really are capable of, and in doing so, what we have to lose by knowing it. That dangerous truth is held at bay by our ideals and the structures of our culture. By the conventions of the calendar and the clock, it is constrained to a separateness. Always apart from the community that we have built, the Mark of Cain reminds us that there are those who are not like us. Yet lest we lose ourselves, we need be cautious in taking part of the same behaviours that define them. Regardless of our intentions, or our "moral correctness" in doing so, by traveling the same path we will end up at the same destination. As was once said, "He who fights with monsters should be careful, lest he thereby become a monster." -Nietzsche
