=> whoami user@dreamofblue => If you are not cheating, then you are not trying.sh Why do we the people wait all week to watch Goliaths battle circus geeks who hurl at each other the crowns of their heads and traumatize their brains asleep in their beds while we fanatics observe the rules they taught us well in grammar schools be we a he a she or a who we obey when our leaders fabricate laws which we then hack and we saw to gin up the game to play easy for some yet harder for others to collect treasures of youth and enact tragedies of old when the chorus was told they can sing but not vote due to the debts they owed or the boats their ancestors rode through ocean swells to circles of hells without Virgils to follow or red pills to swallow and help us see hollow the crises at work and the crying at home and then rage in the street where you hear on repeat if you are not cheating then you are not trying to make good on the vows you exchanged and truths you arranged to go far in this game where we play without rules and abide by the fools who believe the myths they are told and solutions they are sold on sermons and podcasts and fashion shows we worship like those we take in our hearts your paper thin parts and big gulp the bug juice and spit take the knowledge we passed on at college or watched on a show the eye does not see what the mind does not know => Yet Again.sh Has the news ever had anything new to say Or just new ways of describing new days Wherein which we react to old rage with a new phrase Like stochastic terrorism or yellow journalism? Fake news has killed archdukes before and will again. Plagues begin and end and begin yet again Like tulip fever blooms on each winter’s tomb. History starts like a virus with one deadly strain. It mutates, replicates, and goes dormant in our brain Like a second-rate Napoleon who invades Ukraine Or the day's cheap intelligence given a new name. =>
