A Contrived & Polite Nihilism
Are you a good person?
Are you good men?
Are you good women?
Are you a mature adult?
Because only a child
Believes bedtime stories & fairytales.
Go to sleep!
I get it,
You'd rather a fantasy
Outside of reality.
Get to work!
Things still haven't fallen in place,
You feel out-of-step;
You're crawling
And you feel you should at least
Be walking.
Wake back up!
It's *******, I know,
I hear you.
But, here among us,
This is our daily regiment
And the butter of our sustenance.
Eat your oats!
I hear you, I get it,
It's a lot to swallow.
Get it down or choke!
Bedtime stories like the glories of battle & the honor in war.
