So much for solace. . . .
I surrender, Earth
I surrender, America
I surrender, Bilderberg Group
I surrender, Comcast
I surrender, Haliburton
I surrender, Brittish petroleum
or Exxon or National Iranian Oil Company
I surrender, Time Warner
I surrender "insert political or corporate name here"
I surrender to your politically correct puppeteering
I surrender to your drunken power
I will ignore conspiracy
and label anything associated with that word as crazy
I surrender to NBC, CBS, ABC, and Fox
I will nod in unison with the herded masses
to Bill O'reilly and Glenn Beck
I will watch your movies
and T.V shows
I will listen to your music
I will care more about their lives
than that of my own family and friends
I will try to be like them
I will strive to meet their dysfunction
I will think as you want me to
read what you want me to
be as you want me to
ignore what I know is true
I will buy into your banality
I will buy into mediocrity
I will buy into your hypocrisy
I will bow to your majesty
I will fill out your paperwork
and run your machines
I will erect your effigies
I will do so for peanuts
as I blindly, and unquestionably follow your Jesus
and pray to your god that you dont take more
for his name, or your own
I will earn your money
and spend your money
on your houses
and your cars
and your food
and your alcohol
and your tobacco
including your taxes
I will buy your drugs
and then pay for getting caught with them
I will pay for your schools
and your roads
and your law enforcers
I will seek the airbrushed and photo shopped women
that grace your magazines
knowing I will never find them
I will sit in front of your computers clicking
and your televisions watching
and your radios listening
I will live inside your digital world
conversating with people
who were my friends
in a detached manner
I will seek out your world
and not my own
I will be your definition of average
I will follow your edgy characters
I will let them be my heroes
I will let them stand for everything I want to be
I will ignore logical thought
I will ignore my instinct
my gut feeling
my whole being
Cleanse my thoughts
wash my mind
I will die for your way
Instead of live for mine.
