droll humanity
you never cease to amaze me
with your self important
celibrity worship
too lazy to do anything but look at
pictures and try to emulate them
cancer
aids
these are the best of your attributes,
like an std that spurns
from within
your soul
soul rot
wake up

i am not going to tell you that
you should
find
"a good christian blank"
or to live on a farm
because that
just like the first is a false hollywood cardboard front
bullshit plot ploy
and you know it deep within the seed of yourself that this is so

no.

but think.

really think.

of what the worth of your life is.

if you shed the snake skin of

popularity/acceptance (of those who you pretend to care the opinions of, and hat does that say?)

saying what you think you should, instead of what you feel

working jobs

for this pair o dimes (paradigm)

and getting just what we know we'll get.

to be another fuck.

another face just like the last one at a store that sold you something.

can you remember their name?

but still you dream to be a name worth remembering in a social grinder

of deceit that says maybe you could be (something in a magazine? noticed? thus worthwhile?)

you can't

what you can be is something more.

much more.

see that thing that burns you

like an ember?

you see it in front of you burning but dare not say

everyone sees it too and feels the same

will you be the on that names the poison?

or will you fake a smile and drink it

like all of the others?
