Life is a long trip, alone, in the dark

Girls Die Too, You Know

Yes, but while they're alive they enjoy the illusion of oppression, against which they rebel, producing the illusion of a meaningful life. So much for the patriarchy....

Bad News Boys

Just in case you thought your destruction unassured, genetics offers a different picture. The y chromosome is, theoretically, going to disappear over the course of several million years of evolution.

Loneliness

Is extremely tiresome

People die everyday

And you are no exception.

Rate of Decomposition

As decrepitude seeps into the crevices of my face,
as the lines of premature aging mock my vain superstitions,
I fall to my knees, withered and alone.

Technology (I'm told) will save me;
This new product, this interminable progress
Will save me from myself

But these are lies manufactured for the masses,
and I have seen the hourglass,
with its infinitesimal creep towards the shards of infinity.

And yet, escape is impossible, an inexorable decay,
the tyranny of death reigns supreme,
there is no truth for to glean,
for the world is mean.

Unseen eyes glitter in the dark,
but they miss their mark,
"Hark! Who goes there?"

We romanticize the past,
Privilege the present,
And preclude the future.
