Sadly, like those anthropomorphic chickens portrayed in the sculpture of Carlos Montes, most of us are caged hens, who eat and sleep like the Plato's people chained in a cave. We either chose not to acknowledge the evils about us, or we are so apathetic that we do nothing, not even vote. We are fattened by the system and we work and lay our eggs to help the rich get richer, as we continue our dreary existences, eating sleeping and shitting and ultimately dying without leaving our cages.
