Discourses

I often think what it would be like 
living the life of an aristocrat 
And I wonder what life would be 
like 
if I was handicapped
I think a lot because even thou 
ignorance is bliss
Life is too short to not give a piss,

I am the product of destiny and will, 
my outcome is contradiction
Both try to dominate inside me 
causing friction
So sparks fly, I try to extinguish the 
fire
But I’m only human, hardwired, 
misguided by instinct and desire,

Man is nothing but a soul, with 
little to no control
Trying to avoid a fall into the 
wormhole
You wake up in the morning then 
sleep again
Breathing machines increasing 
tolerance to pain
