sometimes it goes the other way too’

people say they are going to go dark and they don’t mean it they say they are disconnecting, going off-grid but it is all just utter bullshit and I am no different I mean clearly look at me typing into a computer to write a post on my website to share on social media in the vain hope that someone might be in some way touched by it Narcissist that I am But I would love to be a painter A sculptor For then I would not touch high definition As I would be touching on life So, I would like to go off-grid Buy some woodland Live off the land And be a good neighbour and caretaker to all the beings that live within it Grow my own food But only some of this will happen and not in the rose-tinted way I would like them to And some things won’t happen at all And I will have to be okay with that Because one day we all go You will go, I will go, everyone will go from this world into another And we are so tied to this one that that process can be painful And can break our heart So let it It’s meant to Don’t be fooled by the Hollywood bullshit endings There are no great speeches There are no grand finales And certainly, no encore for the likes of you and me Not this time so, living off the land sounds nice and we should all give it a go or at least die trying but in harmony with it, not the other way a million fucked up consciousness club together to buy a second-hand car and then drove it through your mall and the worst thing is you saw it coming, all along, and you were too paralyzed with fear about your own incompetence that it came true well, that’s the way it goes junior but remember what the film said “c” And then the line died,` and with it the party -- Photo by James Frid: Written and read by Sam I am from SleeplessDystopian.com
