TABOO

The last cuban cigar has been smoked.

The last Christian baby eaten

the last mulatto borne out of conscience of a slave

master.

The crimes are committed

the actions enabled.

We have reached the end of history

the final quadrant of our tale.

There is nothing more to do

no more shocks to be stolen

little more to make us live.

Does this mean we are to die?

No

for even that taboo has been crossed.
