Goddities Pt 3

maybe if we were living in a world where dollars and cents made no sense maybe then we'd have some reason to... talk to each other maybe if we all had the same interests and we thought in the same exact ways no differing opinions, maybe then we'd... talk to each other everyone's trying to prove a hypocrite like there's something wrong with it well what if i just flat out admitted it? what if i said that then did this? i think i'll write and recite my own eulogy knowing i'll be the only one there anyway so no one will scream when i get up to speak it'll be all over the place, just like everything... "so" i'll say "i sit and talk about this nonexistent god just because he's what i grew up with... who coined the term and who endowed it with such worth? here's a thought maybe one of those schizophrenics you know the kind that sees s---... well maybe one day he was walking down jerusalem avenue turned around and saw some beautiful bright figure stood there with his mouth agape going 'gaaaah' then some passerby came over and closed his mouth for him" maybe if we were living in a world where "gaaaaaaahh-d" never existed we wouldn't have so many crusades in his name because he's on everybody's side... right? if you lose, well, maybe he was just ticked off then maybe we'd just sit in our meaningless depression and eventually... talk to each other
