On a Modern Mind
Tell me more about who's getting a divorce, who wants to have an affair with whom and of course, who has the greatest separation of all time.
Tell me more about who has the best body, what they do eat, what they don't eat, what they eat and throw back up.
Or wait, you forgot to tell me about the new diet the weekly celebrity is on; don't forget to mention the calories she lost. Make sure to tell me where she got her yoga pants and what makes them organic.
I forgot to ask, which cars are selling?
Who was in last weeks car chase?
No, no, I don't need to know about
Deforestation and why millions of animals are dying per second all across this great globe we like to call home.
And I really don't care about the truth on the War on Drugs, or on war, period.
I don't need to know about my rights being violated or the psycho babble ******** preventing people from living simple lives.
We overthink the simple things, we overlook the important things and with that, were killing our civilization bit by bit.
