***
|
||
|
|
||
|
Anybody is capable of aspiring to
|
||
|
Become something more, but it is something few
|
||
|
Captive souls aspire to. Why? Is it this
|
||
|
Doddering old coot at the steeple with words of
|
||
|
Enmity? A
|
||
|
Fear of freedom? The stereotypical image of a nuclear family
|
||
|
Gaily partaking in a Sunday stroll to the local meadow to picnic?
|
||
|
Hate is not necessarily a bad thing
|
||
|
It is a strong emotion, yes, a naturally destructive one
|
||
|
but Joy can just as easily spring from a reversal, a
|
||
|
Kind word spoken on a
|
||
|
Lonely street. A
|
||
|
Maternal protection. A
|
||
|
Nauseous copulation between lovers, the
|
||
|
Open horizon of Sol and Luna constantly
|
||
|
Pitting one against the other. A
|
||
|
Queen from a
|
||
|
Ruddy and trashy neighborhood,
|
||
|
Slaving through learned dependence and a
|
||
|
Turmoil of emotions not yet equipped to deal with.
|
||
|
Unless I escape this golden-gilded cage, I will suffocate under a
|
||
|
mirror reflection of
|
||
|
misplaced Vanity and
|
||
|
Worthlessness
|
||
|
|
||
|
something something something
|
||
|
XYZ
