Resisting The Addiction To Fiction



Since its invention that mentally sickens.
Self inflicting TV addicts.
Amused, damaged and happily drugged.
Permanently abused by truth to fiction.
A reality to dismiss its existence.

Minds gone no longer strong.
Weakening common sense.
Once depended upon.
To value the having of consciousness.
Now witnessed to be absent.
With many believing it pointless.
And makes no difference at all,
To express thoughts to think.
When few these days,
Feel betrayed by more who portray...
Their loyalty to follow and allow,
A pretentiousness that easily imitates.
The faking that creates,
Nauseating toxins.
Digested and normalized until craved.
Without an enema taken.
Eliminating this craze from their minds.
As if,
Enough of this madness...
Many thoughtless can not get.
Of lunatics mentally unfit they pick.
To defend and represent their interests!

What the World needs now,
Is not more love.
But more professional psychiatrists.
With proof and evidence provided,
They can prevent delusion long denied.
From too many minds convinced,
That the losing of their nuts.
Has not screwed them all up!
