[hometext] => Inspired by the world's second best source: Boredom (I need to figure out how to get these acrostic poems to look right)
[bodytext] => Shrill and shout for all the joy Irrigate the pain! Mollify intensity, for the strongest never gain Picturesque disgruntled-ness and complaints never win; Leverage is bought with lies and happiness with sin In and out of all of this the meanings are so hidden Coveted and treasured like man's whimsically bidden Illiterates know everything, and blind men see the world Turmoil-driven obloquy sounds not the if dumb ones hurl Yearning for solemnity, the deaf hear fate unfurl If I'm but no one and no one's has no defects Should that mean that I'm just simply perfect? Blessings fall from shallow mouths like rain Listerine can clean but always stains If it's all so darn complex, why can't life just get a fix? Several times these thoughts have plagued my brain Sometimes life's not truly all in vain.
