darkening air

 

 

do you have any idea the extent of toxins

in our blood just from breathing and drinking

water on our shamelessly polluted planet?

 

 

 

 

see, you wail and whine and scream and

foam at the mouth about "fiscal responsibility"

and "THE DEBT!!!" and "SOCIALISM!!!!" and such

so you don't have to actually be responsible

or care about the cost of your enthusiasms

 

 

 

It’s not the time

It’s the mileage

I’ve lived so many lives

in my years

 

 

 

I don’t have time

to go down your rabbit hole

-- I have a life to feed

(and I know rabbit holes so

much more fascinating than yours)

 

 

 

When I was young,

before I became completely defeated,

I was sincerely interested in

everyone I met – in my earnest quest

to figure out people.

 

 

 

If it comes to you like propaganda,

think it through.

If you don’t know how – get away from

all influence, become calm, become

clear, understand none of that social

frenzy is yours.

Think about what makes you feel

calm, relaxed, happy.

Do what makes you feel you.

 

 

 

It is reasonable to expect to profit

from good/desirable products/services

through honorable business practices.

No one is entitled to profit dishonorably.

 

 

 

I do what I do, say what I say,

for my reasons – not yours.
