is what we're all looking for
a beverly hills 90210
melrose place
general hospital
of life
a way out of reality
a needle
a drink
a lover
a tv
a god
a altar of greed and power
an american dream
a brand new jesus
a distraction from this painful reality
why not for once turn on reality
why not for once enjoy thr proverbeal cage of reality.
instead of trying to escape it.
why not for once appreciate someone elses reality instead of trying to make them appreciate yours
instead of forcing your ideals down the throats of the so called lost why not think for yourself for a change instead of letting your parents, your priest, your magical fairy tv stars, your drugs, you philosophers, your fucking poets tell you what to do.
Its hard forming the dichotomy but for once how about listening to someone elses perception without being judgemental, naive, or absolute about it.
Greed isn't the next messiah and neither is escape the truth about reality lies in it.
Just a little poem about the new american dream.

Obviously you have talent

As a poet myself I thought it was beautiful. I think we would have a lot in common.
