Shift

Does originality still exist?
 
The played out conversation resulting in nothing but regurgitated information tells me original thought is dead
 
What I write now has already been asked, so what drives us to repeat ourselves through the endless onslaught of the spoken word?
 
Perhaps the only thing to come from it is the self serving emotional gain, to be appreciated from the judgement of others, so we feel less alone
 
We sought out to be individuals with our own quirks but lack the perception to philosophise beyond ourselves
 
I am not above or below you, we all travel the same linear path with nothing original to speak, write or hear, I implore you to search for originality.
