A Kind Word & A Knife


Sometimes freedom
Is a knife

Fight.

There is so much
Opposition

To one’s position
Regarding

What is right.

People trying -
Lying
To

Tell you what

To

Do:

Knowing nothing
Seldom – Seeing

Anything

Yet

Proposing
To

Tell you what
You

Should be choosing,
Brainwashed

With

Acidic programming
Scamming

&

Spamming.

I was just thinking how...

Difficult it can be to firstly, find yourself... Perhaps.

And then...  To be that self.

Society trends to the collective,
and the nail that stands out gets hammered and such.

Honestly.

Although fucked up...  In many different ways.

Getting "officially" X'd out of society
is one of the best of things...

Although, there are advantages to each,
and ultimately it is up to you and I.

I recently saw this quote:

"To hold the pen is to be at war." - Voltaire

That shit is true man.

Very true.
