Craving for Chaos - The Great Filter

There is a great filter that every form of life
Must cross
It determines the ability to continue
Moving forward or if all must forever stop
But
Have we already passed it
Or will we fall?
Could we be could we be the first multiplanetary species
Might we be might already be on the brink of existence
A challenge so immensely hard to overcome
That everything, almost everything is doomed to fail
Human technology is still in its infancy
How could we possibly have found them
Absence of evidence is not
Evidence of absence
They might be
Lost and long forgotten
Forgotten
Forgotten
The great
Great filter
Great filter takes us all
The great
Great filter
Great filter rise and fall
But
If we already passed it
Why haven’t all?
It might be the nature of intelligence to destroy itself,
Or it is the nature of thinking beings to destroy each other
Life might face recurring times of natural disasters
Or everyone is listening but no one is transmitting
Humanity is still in its infancy
Still in quarrels with each other
Absence of evidence is not
Evidence of absence
We will be
Lost and long forgotten
Forgotten
The great
Great filter
Great filter takes us all
The great
Great filter
Great filter rise and fall
The great
Great filter
Great filter takes us all
The great
Great filter
Great filter rise and fall
The great
Great filter
Great filter takes us all
The great
Great filter
Great filter rise and fall
Annihilation
Fanaticism
Resource exhaustion
Global pandemic
AI gone rogue
Gamma ray burst
The great
Great filter
Great filter takes us all
The great
Great filter
Great filter all shall fall
Calamity
