You see me buy Ultraman toys, You see an immature manchild. You don't see me yearning for a hero, For a world where justice triumphs. You see me buy imported Aussie foods, You see an unpatriotic, wasteful elitist. You don't see me desperately trying, To stay connected with a cherished past. You see me buy desserts and snacks, You see someone ignorant of health. You don't see me having already lost The ability to find sweetness in life. You see me purchase and consume, You see someone unwise and rash. Alright, I will give you that, my being irrational. But did you see, the ever-growing Maddening, never satisfied, void of darkness Consuming my spirit and sanity? If only... I can literally... Shop til I drop dead......
