boredom is death
:::::
( )
& so ... ?
BUT ALSO
Death is boring
& so ... ?
//
///// • ||
<>
#####
We are bored / we are dying
We are dying / how boring
####
( & so ... ? )
####
Out to the open field
The oft proclaimed Wilderness
( of free choice and understanding )
•
We can numb ourselves
Call lust love
Hurt each other
Hurt ourselves
Get mad
Take revenge
Forgive
Say *******
Get depressed
Take our meds
Rip ourselves to shreds
pretend our dreams
Have more than a
Snowball's chance in hell
Of coming true
Since we really have no dreams anyway
YOU KNOW
JUST KEEP DOING WHAT WE ARE DOING
until we actually commit an ugly suicide
Or just plain die ugly
--------
OR NOT
-----------
But we can't just do nothing
Cause that would be boring
And boredom is death
As we know
/////
?? Now ??
WHAT REALLY MUST WE DO TO BE SANE
AND HAPPY IN TODAY'S WORLD ?
would be an interesting topic for these
Poetry exercises people get into
••
Wouldn't it ?
••
But
We
ARE MASTERING THE
PAIN GENRE !
We
ARE
POETS OF THE
GREAT BROKEN !
we have become
MASTER POETS OF
REVENGE RANTING
////
to build a new world
A LIVING WORLD
we would have to
START ALL OVER !
CREATE REAL MEANING
GIVE UP ON OUR
SUPER STARDOM AND OUR SUPERSTARS
///
/:::/
& so ... ?
What is it that we must do ?
••
Well
NO USE THINKING ABOUT IT
HAVE FEELINGS AND EMOTIONS ABOUT IT
INVEST OUR LIVES IN IT
IF WE ARE NOT REALLY GOING
TO DO IT
IS THERE ?
///
( & it IS fairly obvious
What it is
Isn't it ? )
//////
Well
I 'll talk some more about this later
And just hold every one in my heart
And assess how best to go from here
In a manner that is easy to enter into
And useful and kindly
