Once a pupil asked me, 

Seer, how is evolution related to the world of simulation?! 

For a while, I stunned, 

Words couldn’t be uttered from my mouth- 

I was speechless, 

For once I forgot who is who, 

Who is the ‘Sofia’ here, and who is the ‘Vladimir Solovyov’, 

But, then after a moment- I handled myself,

I asked, dear, how do you see evolution? 

He paused, then I answered,

Evolution is not what we see, but what we feel-

In mass psychology, 

In the nature, 

In the ever changing climate- we change letter by letter like an ever evolving linguistics, 

Just like the language flows- 

Takes turn, 

We are programed to adapt, but, from a source- 

‘The original’, ‘The real’,

But, how do we link this with the philosophy of simulation and simulacra in the hyper real world-

Where everyone faces alienation-

From self, 

From others, 

From what they are- their essence, 

Simulacra has also been evolved-

All the simulations are not anymore of any ‘real constructs’, but of, something unusual, 

Based on- no reality, 

Non partial truth but entirely on falsity, 

But, the simulation feels real, 

The ‘simulated constructs’ are for real-

Their presence is damn so real, 

See the ‘Bot Armies’ in the virtual world- that is again a hyper real construct, 

Information floating in the blue waves- informationless, 

Constructs formed formless- 

In a cyclical manner- 

Round and round found in multiwaves! 

Isn’t this evolution of simulation?! 

Don’t you feel it?!

You are reacting on something unreal –

Creating simulacra out of nothing- nowhere, 

But, that unreal is creating your very own reality,

Consuming the ‘Real you’ in a very unusual way, 

Consuming your every minutes, 

Every bits, 

Every seconds, 

Every pulse, 

You are now an emulsifier of the invisible thread, binding with the non-binding facts,

Forced to get closure from nowhere, 

Attacked from distant,

And, alienated from fact,

Though, you are in a rebound relation to become an active actant-

That’s how you are becoming a ‘social dwarf’ in the ‘social darwinism program’ of the ever simulating worldly affairs! 

What an evolution! 

That’s how narratives are controlled now-

They are created from the endless source of the large pool of ‘nothingness ‘!

Special Note: I was teaching ‘Baudrillard’s philosophy’ today, earlier taught social darwinism at Aeronautical Department, and one of my brilliant students who happens to be a flying officer, asked me a brilliant question, to my surprise,  out of nowhere, he asked me, Ma’am can you relate Darwin’s evolution with Baudrillard’s Simulation?! 

I was stunned, and gave a lecture on this entire class instantly. This poem captures the essence and synopses of what I said in the classroom. 

Yes, it is true, brilliant students who are ever curious give birth to brilliant questions and prompt us to give brilliant answers. That’s how I guess ideas are born, and philosophy can be philosophized through open dialogues! You can give it a read on this philosophically dense poem of mine linking ‘Evolution and Simulation’! I think It’s another unique synthesis of mine converging philosophy, psychology, biology and sociology,blending it into a poetic form! And, I think in this process, I have created a seed, a new theory!

The cockroach did not know that evolution never taught humans to befriend it, And, It didn’t learn to hide. It

Why don’t you believe in people anymore?! – Cause, I don’t want anyone to exploit my reason. How’s that like?!
