The blueprint of primal survival:
relentless aggression. The big fish
swallows the little fish, again and again
for limits there are none. Eliminating
challengers and opponents in a ruthless
blueprint of conquest. There is nothing
subtle in the process and progress that
averted eyes and quiet horror cannot
identify hoping to be spared for none
are, in the relentless drive to absorb
territory and resources sowing trepidation
and fear the better to silence critics
fearing their turn. Silent cunning with
its power screened by an inscrutable
rictus of expressionless patience the grim
colossus moves with stealth and diminishing
caution in lock-step with success while
trembling victims appeal to those not yet
imprisoned in the embrace of the tyrant
to help, though they extended no aid to
others earlier captured in the fine steel net of
the predator's ingathering subjection of
one hapless, helpless nation after another
all destined to become satellites of China.
