Contemporary Discomfort

Ignorance of experience accentuates distinctions.

Being content is euphamistic of stupidity.

To not wallow in the self pity of contritions

Implies a misunderstanding with lucidity.


Kids, don't run from your discomfort in youth,

But hold reason to your mistakes.

Fall in love, and out, plug your heart in,

But adore it with or without the power.

Drink until you are sick.

Relish the honesty that pours from your stomach,

And cherish the shame ache the next day.

 

Masochistic tendencies give joy where not found.

Whether it is right, or proper, or conservative, or sound,

It gives lessons where they are to be found.

Do everything you shouldn't.

In spite of the proper world.

 

Let me speak what they never will.

Let your restlessness flourish

Into body mistreatment.

Punish the future you

For what you know you will become

And what you will do.

How dare you settle to regiment

And find bliss in monotony.

Your mind will be trained to like your despise.

But penalise it with memories of grandiose.
