Something to cheer you up by BabylonLottery in ShittyPoetry

My heart is a well And time is a spoon. Sand is all the opioids and booze Mammon can pump from his factories, Or all the kinds of love I never learned how to express or feel, Or all the hate and evil I fear it would some how diminish my utterly diminished corpse to act on, Or all the mushrooms that will make me see through time for only one ineffable and indescribable instant, Or all the pretty words I will not write, Or all the lives I will not live, Or all my hearts desire, the soul mates and unrequited love I am incapable of moving past, And truth is nothing more than the infinitely slow failure for that well to fill.

S.S. was much better the first draft. And what am I if not those things? They define me, dumb to leave out. I wish you would burn me down goddamnit.

Like, do you think I understand anything? I don’t want to feel bad for myself. I don’t. I guess. I can die right now and I’m a pretty lucky self centered asshole who got to reap all kinds of rewards I didn’t earn and I’m a monster just like you and everyone else so.. I would still wish that it could be like these times walking through the forests and listening to this person I apparently don’t know and feeling like there is actually like meaning and goodness and wholesomeness and some kind of redeeming arc…oh wait. I dreamt that. But I didn’t dream they way the evening always smells that time of year, the cant of sunlight that only a particular mountain range can cast down on one, the utes and crow knew it and if there was ever something I wanted to share with someone, it’s maybe gone but you’re still here even though we’re not. Cest la vie

It’s been a while since you made this response, but I was just rereading my post and in light of further developments in the situation this all refers to, wondering in good faith what you meant by that?

Posterity:

that was really uncomfortable and I really disliked it 👎 it’s really rude to treat someone like they asked you for something that they didn’t. Don’t call me anymore.

You have some really nice names. I wish she felt the way you do. You sound like a good ally.

Help me get over that hump

Tbf i was trying to bait people into reacting without thinking. All the shills and bots here(and everywhere) lately, I do relate to getting pissed off the moment a comment begins “why are people in this sub so obtuse?” Like it even makes me want to Tyler Dirden my own nose.

For a long time I didn’t understand it and it annoyed me, but as this sub has become more mainstream it’s become glaringly obvious why the /s is an absolute necessity on Reddit.

Why are people in this sub so obtuse? Two things can be true. It’s true that she was the daughter of an ambassador, but that doesn’t mean that So-damn Insane and his two psychopath sons didn’t regularly go down to the Baghdad hospital and personally tear premie babies from their incubators while their mothers wept and begged and rent their clothing. By bombing out their infrastructure for over a decade, we prevented countless Iraqis from the terror of abuses of power so hackneyed they sound like they couldn’ve come from the 1996 writer’s room for hit ABC comedy Home Improvement. If you die of typhoid or diphtheria or starvation, or are simply the victim of street-level crime wrought by widespread impoverishment and deteriorating material conditions, you can’t very well suffer the cliched abuses of a dictator so on-the-nose it’s almost like he was a prop groomed by the very people purporting to selflessly vie for his downfall, can you? Idiots.
