Why are people so resistant
to just being people
with/to/around other people?!

People act like
you have to be in a relationship
to have any kind of relationship
and I'm ******* sick of it.

Does anyone else see how this is absurd?
Does anyone see what the **** we're doing?
Would we even ******* care if we did?

Likely not:
we're just a bunch of ******* doppelgangers:
complacent, Orwellian, pharmacological guinea pigs
with a fear of change and betrayal so deep
that we do nothing but betray and change
so rapidly that we can't even be sure
of which alliances are genuine
and which are malign.

Why can't people just ******* be people?
Why do we feel so compelled to be alien?
Why do we prove them right?
Why can't we just BE?!

I'll tell you ******* why:
it accommodates some people's POWER
and I'll say it again
POWER
here, once more
TO GET IT IN
THROUGH OUR THICK-***, NUMB, AND EMPTY SKULLS:


**POWER
