Indifference

Indifference
************
************
Anonymity comforts me like an old friend.
I play my role, choreographed, shaped.
An overwhelming purpose so definitive.
In a mundane documentary of life.
Bitterness drips from my pores.
Scorn of a brittle segmented world.
My tiny part in the silly game mocks logic.
I smile and laugh, we are so naïve.
Watching a solitary tree, it is life.
Vitality in its erogenous sway.
Mesmerised in voyeuristic sanctity.
We meet again. You still remember me.
It imitates itself, dancing with the world.
Providing more reassuring familiarity.
Than masked acquaintances that seek me out.
They can't see it, I hope they do some day.
The Maniacal Prankster of life grins.
We are consumed by our pre-written role.
A tree, more fascinating than any character.
In a burnt out rendition of reality.
Threatened by our gullibility.
To accept a world full of self indulged falsities.
I choose indifference.
Indifference is to be free.

What the fuck, the fuck have I become? I've become the product of the sum. Caught in this endless circle. I've become the stupidest man in the world.

"The worst sin towards our fellow creatures is not to hate them, but to be indifferent to them: that's the essence of humanity."
Your piece just made me think of that quote, so I posted it.
------------------
What difference do you think you can make? One single man in all this madness...?

Not quite sure what to say yet.. but wanted to reply because I think more people should read this one!

Haha,
RaveAngel:
thats the exact opposite idea that I was playing with.
Depends on what your deffinition of indifference is.
I'm not indifferent to our 'fellow creatures' far from it,...just some of the morals and ideals that many people stand for.

...all those things that are handed down to us by the civilized mass are often not needed to be content. Oh yes, on that point I agree.

Very True noodle
Thats what the idea behind this one was.
Although if anyone gets anything out of this, it should be to go and sit down for 15 minutes and watch a tree.
If one person did that I would be happy.

Just to make you happy.. I actually spent 15 mins just watching a tree yesterday..
------------------
if you found out you were dreaming, would you want to wake up?
Please don't interrupt me. That last sentence took a lot of effort to think of and now I have to think of another one.
