(no subject)
I feel like writing poetry, I'm not sure why.
So humans grew wings and then jumped out of trees
And oh, floated around to wherever they pleased
Then down came the sun and it told them one day
"I wish you all do my work and not play!"
So the humans, they bowed down onto their knees
And sucked at world like a batch of small fleas
And never looked up, no, to see their true world
But only saw sun with his lashes unfurled
And then came moon who hid in the dark
Who said don't clip your wings if you cry
I'll show you oasis, a thousand more worlds
And each go to their own guiding light
So all humans they cried, "hallejuah!"
But some got lost in the dark
They wandered around not knowing their way
proclaiming this as "the place"...
But lo and behold, the sun and the moon
Oh, they loved each other still
And humans can and could always still fly
The question is whether they will

So obbsessed with salvation we are,
and that can be what damns us
(the poem isn't just about that)

I hate how the satirism of our culture has become a sort of glorification of it, how people are obbsessed with it.
Rain cleans and brings life, but I still don't want any right now.
Also, it's interesting how people disregard certain fields because society has set lower pay for them.
And how the old adage "someone always has it worse than you" not only makes people laugh at their problems, but see them as invalid, giving them a sense of inauthenticinty about their life. Especially people who must go to extremes to validate their experiences.(some) People also tend to disregard other's pain and then disregard their own.
Ugh, some of that sounded so high-minded, please word it in a way that isn't because I'm too tired to do it, and too used to speaking in the imperative when saying things like this:(.
My dad is stealing my books and my mom is stealing my necklace! what's this socialism about! I thought it was supposed to be me stealing everything from them!
