Misconceptions (#2)


“...some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or free from the deadly light into the peace and safety of a new dark age” (H.P. Lovecraft).

Will the human race survive? Are we too,

Bound by the Laws of the Hierarchy,

So much that we lose our voices? Or,

Does the media Distract and Divide us?

Covering up the truth to keep us all Blind and Contained,

Teaching that Materialism and Gossip are okay.

Is this the natural way we humans are supposed to live?

Are you proud to declare that you live under these conditions?

Or are you too far gone?

Too shallow to realize the true value of the human race.


We must rise like the Flower Children

Who preached Peace, Love, and Tolerance.

We must be there for each other,

Find Happiness,

Find Love.

Grip these positive things that fill you with Euphoria.


Only then will you begin your path to enlightenment, and become a true,

Human Being.
