it would appear
you and i have differing beliefs, but-
have no fear and bear no greif, just-
bear with me and let me speak.
now, i know you have the right to believe what you wanna believe
but, cmon, think about it realistically,
while you distract yourself with petty things, social rings and mtv there are some serious things that you clearly fail to see.
an outlandish off-balance outsourced economy,
fighting a war on the ghost of an imaginary enemy, just-
just another hippie conspiricy theory.
but if you open your eyes
and quit believing your own lies then its kinda hard not to see,
i mean, you turn on the tv and all you hear about is tragedy,
hell, i could walk down the street and see a million things endlessly more relivant and scary than some crackhead robbing a dairy queen, or a car crash in the phillapines.
thats what they do though,
distract you with the irrelivant drear of the macabre everyday tragedies, that-
in the end amount to nothing.
dont hear them mention $4 a gallon for gasoline,
its utterly obscene,
the whole system is in the pockets of some corporate entity.
i let you in on a little secret,
there are no terrorists.
they are the enemy.
i, i dont know what to say to make you see,
here, ill tell you what,
ill be you,
and you can be me,
and we'll see what we see, and if it works out we'll work something out.
but odds are thats not how it goes,
cause i cant stand to walk around with my eyes half closed,
and i just know your brain will explode if it's that over exposed.
so just take what i say for face value,
if what i've said made no sense to you, keep walking
sorry i wasted your time,
but if you're like me,
and you like to read between the lines (which in this case is unneccisary)
then you realize that this whole thing could get iffy in the blink of an eye.
it could crumble just as quick as our rights have been stripped and we're left with nothing but mortar and a bag of bricks so we can build our walls and hope they stand when the structure falls.
yeah, i got a couple ideas of what to do,
yes, i would LOVE to share them with you.
problem is it seems,
everyone likes to talk about problems,
but when someone mentions a theory on what could work its almost more contraversy than its worth.
i mean, well argue and argue until the ends of the earth and get nothing done,
everone wants a silver bullet fired from a golden gun,
fact of the matter is there are some battles that can be tied,
but never won.
but if you're dissapointed in me for bickering and offering nothing heres what i think,
dont worry yourself with material wealth,
consider the facts,
and think for yourself.

I enjoyed reading this immensely.

Because after you've crossed some lines, you just keep crossing them. And there's no escaping from constant escape. Distracting ourselves. Avoiding confrontation. Getting past the moment. Jacking off. Television. Denial.

i would rather fly with eagles through the snowy hills,
i would rather run with wolves between the trees,
i would rather be with trees than in the middle of noisy streets.

And, more on topic, I think this may be one of your better pieces. It's really rather good.
