Nothing Else

"Same old s**t, just a different day"

awake between the hours of ten and six

a living being that should be walking dead

but in this artifice before the great meltdown

we find demarcations between day and night

might as well be utterly useless

for those that are sleep-deprived,

time is just a stream that appears

finitely endless

a Colorado creek bed overflowing in April

but bone-dry come the ides of July

and the phone isn't replaced into the

cradle and the out-of-service signal

beeps on like that creek bed

suffering slowly, not just the main agent

but the supporting players as well

money leeched

hours wasted on trying to

make problems disappear

this is why the absolutely negative

view of humanity holds some grain of truth

the stopped clock truth tells us we

have the capacity to do great things

with great responsibility

humans care for other offspring

despite being paid or not

humans go out of their way to

help those they don't know

follow the more positive aspects

of their respective creeds

but in the end,

it's all pointless

a what-other-people-said-about-Nietzsche-and-

Camus-fantasy that promotes absurdist nihilism

so what the f**k else is new?

nothing else, that's for sure

So much truth in that ending… humans care not people. Rock on with your thoughts.
