You wake up And churn out your routinely manufactured day, Till the obliviousness washes over you Till you can barely breathe And you pant, and you heave And you sputter out an exclamation of remorse In being born In an era with no answers and fashioned morals. To be nailed down to the earth, while being a child of the universe. One which taunts you with its domineering presence In every direction Around every nook. Reminding you of your insignificance. Of your nature, so fleeting. A flung out piece of excrement Floating around the abyss. A taunt. Your life is a taunt. And the great big being laughs his great big laugh. The shudder of his belly causes civilizations to fall And children to be born To a small little wail Which wades across the cosmic fabric As an impending omen of inevitable suffering. Flee, you rotting carcasses Separated from the inevitable only by mother time. Flee Till your spirit tapers into nothingness And points towards nothingness.
