You know that old phrase, that old cliché,
That we may carry the world all upon our shoulders?
Well, I have dived deep for answers, answers,
And I know that much is true---whether for you
As separate individuals (as much as that seems
To stray from my philosophy of a singularity,
Which would mean it's all my fault, although
That's what this message means---is all about),
Decide for yourself... But I can claim the soul
Of its substance myself, in this oblivion of disarray,
Nonsense, and crazed chaos, to be true enough,
And it doesn't help that I know myself to be
Thus reaping of evil deeds, done by the maelstroms
Of those who follow delusion and its own Feed.
Stop, stop, cease searching for glory, the inevitably
Gory hieroglyphs and those bright red dreams,
Blood streaming from corpses and satanic seed
Regenerating infinitely; I mean, please, do the world
Some justice; the fiend of dystopian darkness
Shouldn't veil over us, in a mist and cloud of abyss.
This poem expresses a lot of
This poem expresses a lot of insight.
