a social outcast point of view

 


Entitled assholes “freedoms”
trump reasonable policies for
public health?
How is this a responsible democracy?
 
 
 
Delusion’s world, you who get to
judge who’s worth making a difference,
who gets dismissed as mentally ill,
because the mainstream make the
standards.
 
 
 
 
Notice how Earth seems to be slowly
(or maybe less so) killing us off with plagues,
floods, fires, murders, anxieties that lead to
disease, lessening our deadly influence.
 
 
 
From a social outcast point of view
 
 
 
What is it with this fad for the suicidal
to spread their death, through disease,
murder, extending dangerous ignorance
with deadly misinformation?
 
 
 
Nonbinary – not just about gender
There is so much more to color
than black and white – these are not
boundaries nor imperatives.
These are merely metaphors,
print on page.
Humans can be perverse --
anti-survival.
Caught up in fantasies that poison,
destroy our own lives.
We refuse to be wise, in favor of
self-flagellation, suffocating in hatred,
dying however we can, despite
that imperative instinct to cleave
to beauty, to survive.
 
 
 
Social constructs, made to distract,
distrust, divide, set us to destroy
our energies imploding, denying
our precious lives.
 
 
 
These clinging memories,
how expel, express?
What is their essence?
