Now who in their right mind,
even those most athiest at heart,
Have not tried to bargain with god?

Those who have not must not know of tragedy

And to not know of tragedy is to sadly be stuck



You were not born to live the life of one Peter Pan

The universe does not owe you an explanation for containing
You in its miracle. You learn the system of good
  and bad karma merely for it to be flipped on it's head

Whence you've been worn to the bone with effort.
Plucking receding hair's
No otis redding necessary

I'm back to smoking, I've tripled my coffee intake

We're getting through the days.


You do not owe the universe a will to live when it's took

Near enough everything you've ever grown to love

On that same token-- body full of drugs but i haven't felt high in months

Skydiving for the view, dispatched heartache that deployed a delayed

Parachute throughout recovery

You can not live this life with strangers

As your appointees,you can't go by lonley

Or you're expected to die.

You can't live in silence or they say you

Should've spoke up

And if you scream until your lungs choke you
They say you've got to get your head ******* on and move on

While these same people

Just sit back all day
                   and whine and whine and whine and whine and(...)

If you've ever been in a similar position;

Had folks step on your shoe when you're not looking

Seemingly just to test your reaction

When you're trying your best just to get home and from the rain

Then try this exercise on for size:

Stand on the corner, stripped bare of all expectation,
And **** debris as it passes your way.

A new morning a new day

Well the same day really-- just re-reeled along the sky,

Do what you must to get by

No one knows your patience any more than you do,

                                     not even close.

So lungs emptied, eyes drained and future up in the air--

Sip the ****** dust from a sea-sunken rose and make it clear

You no longer care.
Post-solipsistic ritual you're no longer here the way you used to be.
