The Oblivous Nature of Society

The Oblivous Nature of Society

A Poem by Davidgeo
"

.

"

The hurt feelings brigade. . .

She's in fashion these days

Like something cold blooded

Unaware for the most part . . .

A quite fashionable fascist

Movement (type of)

Coated in obliviousness

And assumed things

Of the very reactionary sort


- - - - - - (your silence is a hate crime)


So they tell them. . .


It's really just a throwback style

Back when all we had was feeling

No writing

No history

No law

No bigotry

Just flesh hunting flesh


Before the meek played the world


With language games

With willful ignorance

With the forgetfulness

(that comes with that)

With shame


For being exactly who she is

A f*****g ball full of human

c***s and c***s

  unequivocally so


Just


Like


You


Me and everybody


Where the dead sleep

Where the living dance

   we are so very much all of that


Organized around what brought us here


   prejudice against the weak


And it still smells the same

Any time or way you slice it

Our intellect will always fight herself


   nature hates her conscious


(call it ignorant self preservation)


    to seem kind


(to bait a hook)


Like an intellectual cannibal

The mind is and always will be


       all about survival


Unequivocally
