My friends, please don’t

be mis-lead, and convinced

of things

untrue.

If you feel pangs

of optimism and

unrelenting

joy with the

world,

the state of things,

i feel it may

be time for you to

stop,

take stock,

and

think.

Do you remember

the last time you were lied

to,

betrayed?

It happens all the time right?

Yet, you still

keep faith with the race

and pray for better

times.

I watch people

and i watch

myself, and in my experience

that faith is

mis-guided

and ill-judged,

due to

the lengths that our

species will go

to to avoid

discomfort and

pain.

Everyone you know will

stab you in the

throat, should the solution

be offered

on the street, sold

in bottles, twenty at a time

or, in cigarettes rolled by

dwarves.

I will say only

this,

you, your parents and

all your friends will

die, painfully and ill at

ease…simply stop… and

all that trying,

will have

been worth

nothing,

nothing at

all.
