When all points of equal or similar distance
from an exterior surface meet ....
a definition forms.
An interior place of darker origin,
 ... the center, or the centrality.

We ...... are in no position,
but rather, we are scattered sporadically,
throughout the framework of a society’s mentality,
that says, we are the weakness, if we become the nobody.

We live in a land of opportunity, or should i say ...
"The land of moral dismantling".
We've become so well adapted to this,
that we don't even realize
that we've drowned in insufficiency ... and humility.

I am a basic fundamentalist, a humanitarian,
someone who is influenced by the successor,
someone who believes that to reach past
the successor's success ....
is a true achievement of brilliance.
Unfortunately ... I'm a basic man at best,
who has been taught from birth
to believe ....... that one-day
I can be the best, at whatever it is
that I set my mind to be ..... yet instead
as life unravels, I have slowly learned ....
that to believe in something beyond
the totally irrelevance of it's own capacity,
and to understand that
is to feel ..... completely powerless
and thats the problem, no one had told us that.

Behind these round bars of narrowness we stand,
chained together, completely deprived,
of all these privileges that we see from a distance.
Watching, as they wave candy in our faces.
Be whatever it is that you think you can be.
Be the water pouring in through your hands
 a liquid concrete imperilment.
Be the guns on a ship .....
or just the nerves that force you to feel
the damage, the hurt, or the destruction ...
whenever something goes wrong.

Sooth the pain in which you feel,
by buying the materials they advertise.
Become the consumer and live .......
the Great American life ...
Be a part of our powerful: All-mighty pain killing society.
Integrate the state of the human condition, thoroughly,
before you pass judgment.
It's in the corner of every bathroom ... in every closet ...
in every house .... next to a pile of expensive questions
concealed in a darkness .... we simply cry ....
we simply weep
more then you'd believe ....

Realizing the possibility that was promised since cognition kicked in and made us understand the content of the promise...is not true and never has been...is so powerfully heart crushing. You express this so very well... ~DW~
