demoivre

Excellence is the cock blasted into your veins;
Degradation is the life pissed away in the
Banal pursuit of mediocrity.

The Wicked know this.
The Foolish sit and despair.

Understanding comes with a jack in the head.
Loathing comes with the truculent daydreams lost in the
Flowers of yesterday.

Despair comes as the neon horizon of silver eternity
Is lost amidst the fecund, dead alleyways and
Sidewalks of the Inner Core.
