Are there modern-day geniuses?

Intellects such as the greats we

Still learn about centuries later?

Have we come up with great ideas,

Or have we reached a plateau only

Improving what already exists?

Who are our modern-day greats?

What out-of-this-world innovations

Have we achieved since the greats?

Seems like they're not around anymore

And the general discourse is so banal

Feels like brilliance's a thing of the past.
