[hometext] => The only power that I have is in my words. Which is never enough. Too bad they have no power to change reality.
[bodytext] => What such impulsive self-centered murderous creatures we are But we have become so efficient at camouflaging are true identities So good that we’ve even fooled ourselves Plausible deniability Lying to ourselves about our inhumanity Plausible deniability We think we are so clever But in reality we know nothing Justifying the subversion of our minds The subversion of logic The subversion of right and wrong And the subversion of common sense Justifying all this with the enticement of pleasure Dissimulation We have buried the truth under a mountain of fear and deception Dissimulation Life consists only of seemingly important events, which are forgotten soon after, losing any meaning, if any at all, that they once had. Replaced thereafter by our next selfish ambition. Life for those who are not evil sadistic sinners, greedy power hungry tyrants, or weak love blinded fools, is a monotonous, irritating, incessant, and dithering emptiness. Our lives all ultimately amount to nothing. Life keeps us all haphazardly busy, keeping our minds suspended, disabling us from ever realizing the truth. We are better off dead.
