im burning holes in my stomach.
i fear.
this sickness comes from the soul.
i feel.
the acid is now free to travel wherever it wants to go.

this is not just a virus.
this is a symptom.. One of many.
falling victim to the temptations of a dying people
lacking in faith.. culture, passion, and love.

we strive for a life free from hurt.. a world sheltered.
a safehouse from the war. survival is trivial.
the people outside are dying. the people outside are living too.
meanwhile we do neither.

when offered a great pleasure at the risk of great pain..
instead we choose the ordinary, dull and stale.
we choose guaranteed pain in small doses over the real and the beautiful.

together we strive to be alone. and no doctor can cure us.
no vaccine or pill can prevent it. the solution is simple.
stop ingesting the poison. open the door and walk out.
