Spiritual Health

It seem's to me
That not even poetry
Nor truth or reality

Can redefine
The border lines

That the modern day Hollywood Blockbuster 
Have already surpassed and eclipsed
With comically bad Sub - Parr scripts

And even though incoherently funny
They will rake in the money

And if you read this 
And simply dismiss
Deem me annoying

I ask of you this
 
The defense mechanism
You are you now employing

Did you come to yourself

Or are you like me
That tares eyes wide open
Believing it all 

A minor foot note 
In invisible print
On the front page media

WHOOOOOA! I'm glad you stopped by my page so I can read your TRUTH. Those first five lines hit me SO hard! People KNOW how things are, complain about how things are yet perpetuate madness. Sure, life may be a bit more uncomfortable in a dedicated effort toward making life as perfect as it seems on TV but I feel it's an exaggeration within the limits of possibility <3
