Just Ask

CC BY

Nevermind, Scratch that.

Don't ask me what I think about the world.

I would go into thousands of words of dialouge just telling you how evil it is.

The world is cruel and unfair.

Only the rich and wealthy get to flourish and grow.

While the unfortunate have to make the rich's dream happen-

There I go. 

On a useless tangent.

I'm nice I swear.

Sweetest person you'll ever meet,

I just don't get to express myself out loud.

So I do it in art and poems.

I need a beer.
