Khoisan

Even if in reality it hurts so deep
we often choose the path of least resistance and will remain
content with our oppressors.

Tragic how these systems have us conditioned ❓

"let's start with fallible," he said

humanity is hardly infallible
we are fragile fragments of matter

let go of your worldly possessions
even your opinions
and walk the planet you have evolved with and into

we are segments of yarn,
so populated among ourselves
but invisible to reality
yet we think we hold the universe together

my name is grace
that's the name I was given
and I like that name, all the same
I am wired to complain
about the hardships in the rain
of our vain
hypocritical place;
i am grace
~

i dont really know what i was going for here but yeah anyways

supplement

i am tired
of this old routine
what does it mean?
ask the mayor
or the minister -
im sure their answers might be sinister
but why should I care now
when i never have before
because i see a little piece
which is a little less plain
than the traffic and the cranes
building more for my complaints
i am strained
i am trying to retain
but the knowledge i have gained,
it is vain and retiring
i am fine
just fine
just tired and trying

the cycle

hard times make hard men
hard men make easy times
easy times make soft men
soft men make hard times

if another Carrington event hit nowadays, people would go into anarchy knowing their snapchat streaks would end. i'd be out selling candles on the streetcorner.

never stop until the summit

when the rungs of the ladder break from above
only the strong-willed and agile can cling to the sides
and keep on climbing

life is so ******* easy. you do the work and stay sane. rinse and repeat. how people manage to **** up and allow me to advance above them is beyond me.

oh well. i take those opportunities. more money = the sooner i can escape from the corporate mountains to the real mountains
