Attn: [A Poem]
Attn: It has come to my attention as of late that the truth is based on lies and lies are based on rape and the rape is based on love and the love comes crashing down like a downpour from the clouds and it does not make a sound just keeps spinning round and round It has become clear to me that life doesn't last forever that we will never be free from our own constructions of reality from our self-serving responsibilities creating self-fulfilling prophecies that dont end well for you or me I regret to inform you that I have had enough Im throwing away all of your stuff and breaking free out of these cuffs that last few years have been pretty rough but I can only dream and hope and wonder what it truly means to be in love.
