Comfortably Isolated
Or the extended alternate title
“More Information About Me Than You Cared To Know About ”
Comfortably isolated
Like a veal in a box
Awaiting certain death
Regardless of Facebook
Or the rest of the internet
My modus operandi
Has always been to be
Devoid of as much
Human contact as possible
It is not that
I don’t play well with others
I do, or at least try to
(Regardless of race, gender or religion)
Just cannot conform
To (group think) of either
Clear or vague parameters
Which seem to be
One in the same
Depending on the group
.
In sports have neither
A team or a sport
Politics have neither
A party or an affiliation
Just a desire for a
Paradigm shift
To meritocracy
.
** No religion too
For if you believe
In one, might as well
Believe in all, as all
Have similar stories
Just different names
For benevolent characters
At least until the followers
Jump on the * my god
Has a bigger dick
Then your god
Bandwagon
.
Welcome also the
Techno check out bots
At the stores saving me
From malignant musings
About the weather and or etc. etc.
Plus, am much faster
With 20 items than the guy
Trying to buy a * bag of cheese doodles
With a credit card while listening to
The clerk describing his
Third colonoscopy for the fifth time
“I Like People”
“Now, you wouldn’t know it from some of the things I’ve said over the years, but I like people. I do. I like people, but I like them in short bursts.
I don’t like people for extended periods of time. I’m all right with them for a little while, but once you get up, passed around, minute, minute and a half, I’ve got to get the fuck out of there.
And my reason for this, my reason is for one that you may share possibly. I have a very low tolerance level for stupid bullshit.
That’s all. Stupid bullshit. You know? And everyone wants to tell you their stupid bullshit, and a lot of them don’t know when to stop talking.
You ever run into that guy? Doesn’t know when to stop talking, just continues running at the mouth like verbal diarrhea.
Don’t know when the conversation is over. Stupid, trivial shit you don’t care anything about, things you’re not even remotely interested in.”
– George Carlin
I have zero guns
But think you should
Own as many as you want
So long as you don’t
Use them on anyone
Noting the people I know
That have the most guns
Do not use them on people
Just store most of them
In safes to secure
Their manhood and ego
Amused in their illusion
2nd amendment theory
That they and their NRA buddies
Can band together to go against
An already tyrannical government
In posession of tanks bombs nukes
Flamethrowers & weaponized drones
“Gun Enthusiasts”
Here are some more people with missing chromosomes who oughta be thrown screaming from a helicopter:
Gun enthusiasts. Yanno? Oh yeah. “I’m a gun enthusiast.”
//
And I’m not against guns. I’m not one of those mindless Hollywood c*cksuckers. I’m not against guns, I’m not against bullets. I’m not even against people shooting each other. sh*t, shooting somebody is part of the American dream.
I don’t care who it is; parents, teachers, kids. f*ck ’em. Let ’em get shot. Doesn’t bother me.
– George Carlin
I am pro life and pro choice
The “state” should not
Be the arbiter to tell men
They have to go kill people
And then in the same breath
Tell women they can’t
.
The people I take
Most seriously
Are comedians
.
Enjoy every kind of music
Cherish any moment of silence
.
I love my chosen family
My chosen family loves me
They must, after all
Reading this I don’t
Look too good
On paper or pixel
They are the ones
I mostly want and get
To interact with
Keeping me
Comfortably isolated
.
“Cast in this unlikely role
Ill-equipped to act
With insufficient tact
One must put up barriers
To keep oneself intact
//
Living in a fish eye lens
Caught in the camera eye
I have no heart to lie
I can’t pretend a stranger
Is a long-awaited friend”
From “Limelight”
