cruel whore of Irony
posit your wares of iniquity
on the poor and unworthy,
Destroyer of dreams
feeding with spoons and needles
our addiction
to hope.
You leave us empty,
drinking the putrid womb-juice
eating the fetid afterbirth
of your aborted bastard child, Ennui.
Everyday is exactly the same
evil enjoys love
good suffers indifference
once I had a voice
now I rarely make a sound
Everyday is exactly the same
slowly poisoning ourselves
longing to forget what we have already forgotten
emptiness replaces pain
maybe once I had a purpose--
then again, that might have been a dream
leaves hope for release
will never come.

I know, I know... you are going to say, 'now Megan, if you want perky blogs, then START UP YOUR OWN PERKY BLOG WEBSITE AND WRITE YOUR OWN FUCKING PERKY BLOGS!!!'
... and then I will say, 'but James, I so enjoy reading and responding to all the other blog sites, and i don't want to take away from that time by working on my own blog site'
...and then you will say 'well that just sounds like plain laziness to me'
... and then i will say, 'yes, yes, i suppose perhaps you are right'
... and then you will say, 'indeed, i usually am'.

LWCS: Thanks and good luck with that . . . but are you sure it's even worth the effort of the attempt? Only the selfish get ahead in life.
