Philosophical Fallacy

living in this flagitious society life becomes numb yet we extrapolate irrespective reality till we become dumb mental break downs and frivolous exercises of intellectual contempt permeates a paradigmatic volition of unparsimonious content we are axiomatic in our subjective minds as we conceptualize truths but preconceived notions poison and impede the capacity of our fruits berayed by the thick insulating cover of vitriolic and obligatory words you can see with more than our eyes and hear more than whats heard virtue and value will hurt you in battle as expression and intention fight for domain necessity and certainty like humans and cattle like pride and despair both going insane miraculous recoveries and extravagant claims cognitive faculties misfiring as the mind refuses to aim lost in translation as we wander our brains a mental castration of parabolic restrains feelings, opinions and emotions all subjective and chained like a broken track on a bridge made for a 4,000 ton train we refuse to abide by the laws in our hearts as we accept solipsism in whole and in part judgmental determinist with a maniacal skill to violate logic and ignore the freewill you recapitulate hate and promulgate lies like maggots on a carcass embedded by flies you are dead in your thoughts and dead in your walk Trace the outline of your body with a forensic white chalk to be dead in your mind is to be dead inside time and if life is subjective theres no reason or rhyme
