There are so many
Ways to live by

Numerous routes
One could
Take in their
Lifetime

It exhausts me
Just to
Think about it

There are so many
Quotations to
Memorize and
Organize and
Believe in

People forget those
One's
Never followed
Anyone

Their vice of
Self - fulfillment or
Self - worth or
Self - righteousness or
Self - obsession
Left them alone and
Mad
Most of the time

But that's
The way
It goes...

There are so many
Lifestyles around me

They dilute people
That live it
To have a strange
Horrifying
Glaze across their eyes

As if they were
Robots or
The Undead or

-even worse-

Brimming with illusory
Finiteness or
Settling with the
Result

As if
This were
It

All this
Has been happening
Since the dawn
Of
Time

Cavemen opted for
Deer fur
Rather then
Bear fur

Harder to **** a bear

It is those
Tiny things that
Mother Nature

-The *****-

Leads us to
As if we were
Blind right
From the
Start

Powerless against
Her
Shackled at the
Beginning

Make do
With what you've got

Sit back and
Let life
Reveal itself

Day in
And
Day out
