Put your phone on silent and sleep😉 I do that everyday. I don't want calls at night. 😆 I see you're online, so good night again😃

I don't know about the dazzle, but you asked for it...

*ahem, ahem* I'm clearing my throat 😆

Don't read this if you're already in a bad mood, I just found it on my office computer and I felt a little disturbed myself after reading. I can't remember exactly why I wrote this but I'm certain it came about after I'd seen a lot of depressing news on TV.

20/7/2006

In this world
Full of lies
I can be
Anything I want to be
I can be
Anyone I want to be

In this world
There is no justice
Except for the rich
And if you're poor
Shut your mouth
'Cos you haven't got a clue

What it's like
To be super rich
And worry only about
Fancy party nights
You can be a jungle boy
Or a fairy queen
Spider-man
Even wear a chicken suit

But you can't think of
The poor man
Dying in the street
'Cos he's dirty
He is cheap
He doesn't know
What it's like
To be a celebrity
And give rock concerts
Or talk about world peace

'Cos the poor man
Will never know
'Cos the lost man
Will never know
Why they are so inferior
So lost
And unloved

Only the 'civilized'
Can lead the way
Lead them to salvation...

I wonder how
The people lived
Before they were colonized

They were better off
I think...
But, what do I know?
'Cos after all
There is no way
If it's not 'their way'
They know it all
It's for our own good
That's the way
It is
That's the way
It always is

Too bad though
That I don't see
Eye to eye
With them
Too bad for me
Too bad for my,
Unfortunate family...

As I write
I smell smoke
I hear screams
I guess my home is burning

For the 'greater good'
I will be sacrificed
'Cos I am
A different race
A different color
I follow a different religion
A different culture
A different belief...
A different person??

May be...
We should all just,
Merge
In to a single organism
That would make them happy
I think...
But, what do I know?
I'm already dead.
