fun

Felicity

let's go out
and find a party
one where we don't
know anybody
let's drink their booze
and eat their food
talk to all those people
who think we are somebody
wouldn't that be fun
to fool them all
into pretending that
they need to impress us
we could tell them
little white lies
and mention names
that they'd want to discuss
let's go out
and find a party
there's lots of them
around right now
celebrating with excess
and pretending to laugh
at every stupid joke
because you never know
who's really important
who's really into you
or who you could use
to your advantage
be it job, money, sex
let's go out
and find a party
where see-through people
are all dressed up
drunkenly boasting
and trying to find
anything to make
them feel they're of use
because in the end
that's all people want
to feel cool, attractive, smart
so we'll go around
and tell them all
how beautiful they look
how clever their minds
how proud of their success
we might really be
if we weren't liars
or complete fakes
it's funny what people
really will believe
because it makes them
feel good
but that's not evil
is it?
they'll go home
feeling great, high on themselves
maybe that will
somehow spread
to others
and we'll never know
because we'll be somewhere else
looking for another party
where more shallow, scared people
are drinking and eating
and talking shit
let's go out
and find a party
and be their lying angels
because that's
what we do
the best
in the name of love

happy holidays

and i thought that was well written

bitter as fuck
but well written

This poem describes my attitude in college. It would describe my attitude now if there were still parties all over the place. Ahh, the quiet, peaceful real world.
