"October 16, 2009 12:14pm"
  by D Benitez


Satisfaction unsustainable
Stainable
Flammable desires
On a chase to acquire
What is the entirety to this?
I wish
I get
I let go
I wish
I get
I let go
Oh it goes
On and on and on
Till we wither in gone.
Satisfied because we rely
Nouns pronouns verbs
People places things
Words - slurred
Listened - heard
Always on to the next
Look at society’s structure wrecked!

Satisfaction through action
Is unsustainable.
This superficial world gives and takes
Till we ache astonishingly incapable
Of believing IN ourselves.

society is here to do nothing more than condition you to a standard that is far ancient and it is about submission...so those of us who buck the system have no choice but to be confident in our own abilities and self! i see your wheels turning..
