This is the general category of fuckery that goes on and on and doesn’t seem interested in stopping.

I know there are worse hells than this
I still submit that this is hell
Varying degrees of hell
I wish for an Earth with fewer hells
With less a degree
Sometimes I’m worried that the only way for my wish to come true is for humans to stop existing
And sometimes I hope that’s the only way
Such explosive feelings
All the time
I wish there was more to life than this
Than wishing for better
Constantly reminded “it could be worse” like this amount of terrible is acceptable
Living out of spite
Damned, but kicking
Cursed, but moving forward
Through time and space
I think if everything stopped time would too
I often fantasise about what it would be like if time stopped
And how I’d just go on an anarchist spree of eating whatever I want and taking stuff
Day dreams
Freedom and food
Wouldn’t it be great if we could have that without time stopping

Rain rarely surprises me
So when I went inside for less than 10 minutes and returned and everything was soaked I was partially surprised and partially impressed
Stealth rain
No Sun today
Well there was a moment
I miss the days when the people who are missing were here
I never get to see his blue eyes he’s always wearing sunglasses
They are the most beautiful ones I’ve ever seen though
Can’t seem to love something that’s mine
I will love until my life is exhausted
But whether anyone will love me is as unknown as the rain that fell
Is it a good surprise?
I wish for some good surprises
Something positive
Rain is decidedly neutral
Who knows what’s coming now?
Well, there’s the impending explosion
But that’s later
Later than now anyways
It’s a dark and stormy afternoon
I see more bus riding and waiting in my immediate future
And something weird for anyone else
I’ve had enough weird in my days lately it’s time for someone else to experience it
Oh pouring rain
It’s never my night

I really do think I cease to exist
When I’m not in front of people
What is left must be a ghost
Some inhuman thing
That maybe once was
People don’t seem to quite grasp how alone I am
What being alone all the time does to someone
How could I spend any more time by myself unless there was an apocalypse?
Unless I was in jail?
When I had my overdose
In the minimal moments of consciousness being rolled through a hospital
My brain thought I, the worst person on Earth, had finally been apprehended
At my least cognitive I believe I am the worst
Sometimes I think of that and I try to trick myself into thinking otherwise
But how am I to believe anything when I am this alone
Texting just gave people the option to never have to actually check up on people
Because they can trick themselves into thinking texting “how are you”
Is checking up
I wouldn’t let someone live like this
Except me apparently
But how am I supposed to stop me from being alone?
Conjure up humanoids that won’t live without me?
Like everyone lost it during COVID
And most people were with someone
7 years
Like this
And all I wanted was hello
And I never got it
From anyone
I honestly don’t know how I’m even the least bit of sane that I am
Hearing people be together around me
Always around me
I don’t know
I really don’t

Being told to “get over it”, “move on”, “look on the bright side”
Is really triggering right now
And no I don’t mean that as Pop Speak
I mean that as in I have this visceral reaction it is tears and anxiety and pain and anger and anguish all wrapped into one
It is how disappointed I am in the world that I am being told to just be okay with my life
Has anyone telling me to be happy lived this life?
Now I know some do this willingly
I know
But damn, I wanted friends and stuff
Stuff being relationships I guess
Today I am hungry and wondering if I shouldn’t have spent money I didn’t have on food the other day
My last conversation was with my therapist on Tuesday
Before that it was that subpar Christmas
I don’t know, I would be appalled to find out someone I care about was living like me
Anything else was work or being a customer
Or being a tenant
Like yay?
They don’t have to go that far, but telling me to be happy anyways seems
And he’s somewhere warm and enjoying life
This world is so imbalanced
At least the bards succeeded
Happy
I’ll be happy
Happy for no reason like a right lunatic

It’s such a concept
Being surrounded by food
Not allowed to eat any of it
Two grocery stores
A dozen or so restaurants
The goods guarded by the all mighty dollar
Talk about false idols
It’s like
There’s so much food here no one will ever eat it all before it’s spoiled
And statistics about how much food waste there is
I don’t want to be that person who guilts a child into eating by telling them “there are kids in China/Africa/Asia(whatever place they’ve racistly decided people are needy besides their own streets) starving so eat everything”
This is not that
But we produce so much more than we use
Why can’t we be better?
Why aren’t people more interested in it being better?
I can smell bread baking
And I am hungry but can’t eat
It’s not an outrage when it happens to me, but it should be for every other person
And people are always like
What if they’re just bad with money?
Or whatever
I say we still feed them, clothe them, because money is a game not everyone was meant to play.
And no one gave them a choice
I saw a meme saying “if society were monopoly we’d be in the late stage where everyone is frustrated and one guy is rich and fucking around with everyone”
Dude, “if”?
Monopoly is literally a satirical representation of what capitalism does complete with the rich dudes going to jail and getting out like revolving doors
Monopoly is not a game I like to play
It was not made for someone like me
People should not be forced to play games they don’t want to play
And before someone screams communism
That is not the way of life I want
Stop putting binaries places they don’t belong

Dear Sun
What are you?
I arbitrarily made you male
I mean you’re cumming into space constantly
And I am a result of it
But like
There’s untold genders
So many creatures don’t really fit into “male et female”
Like ants, there’s the Queen ant, and the worker ants and we say they’re both female but does one of the worker ants have the ability to become a Queen who produces babies without transition?
They’re not male and female they’re male (maybe), female (kind of), and something else
So, I don’t know, what are you big burning ball of fire*
* = PBS said it is not fire and I understand that it is a pet name
Welcome after the snow and then immediate rain
A few stray clouds
I wish I could speak your language too
Hear what you’re screaming in the darkness
I am so small
And then I think of the smallest thing
So small I cannot actually picture it because picturing it immediately makes it big
The universe is a wonder I cannot compare anything to
So many possibilities
Dear Sun
Thank you for the opportunity to be
Dear Universe
Holy shirt dude this is a trip, what the fork
