I agree with Ravolution a lot, but I also thought that there is a kind of anti-religious tone to it as well.

"Proud as a purpose they became to walk the earth. As they arraigned the common creatures. Caught within the corpus, cursed, conscious human brain"

In the bible it speaks of Adam naming all the animals and I think this quote explains how arrogant and self centered humans are to think that we have such reign over other species. The only thing that separates us is an odd set of events over time that gave us this brain, we didn't really earn, though we act like we did.

"They will betray what they have meant"

This reminds me of how religious followers are always going back on their words and when the bible doesn't say what they agree with they often ignore it or try to shift it into something else, like saying slavery in the bible wasn't talking about the ownership of other humans.

"Abstraction is the stake between the animal and animus"

Made me think about the social pressures to act feminine if your a female and act masculine if your a male, and how we still live in a nation that punishes people for expressing their sexuality.
