(UNTITLED)

if i had been in germany then, i simply would have lay down and died
lost the will to exist
humanity has nothing to offer me
and i haven't the desire to offer it anything
what am i to do now?
perhaps paint my nails,
or see another inane movie-
or spend time with people who smell stale
eyes red and crossed
words so shallow and thoughts so far away
none of it can reach me
i could read a book
--learn more useless information
which will be regurgitated on another meaningless test
but it all rises to the surface
i cannot understand the simplest thoughts
no comprehend basic trigonometry
my mind is rotting
and i sit in this stagnated room
tying these words which only fail to express the dire meaninglessness
there is nothing for which to exist
besides these words and these people
and the people vanish to their mobilized homes
and the words stay on a blank, glowing screen
and my mind rots on
wasted potential?
time wasted me
i've lost the ability to waste time
so lets drink and be merry?
drink virgin blueberry margaritas brought by waitresses of higher awareness
which are actually raspberry
but hey--
everyone knows that they taste the same
even god
but we do not trust god
we will overthrow the god who keeps my boy in california
we will bate his achilles' tendons and smack her upside the rotten head
the detroit airport is crying for your help
i tell you this in seriousness
or is seriousness in me?
what is in me?
i do have two kidneys
lucky me, I hope you've got one
