Lift the world’s weight, drag it away, and thrust it over the edge
You do not need pressure from snobs who make assumptions and judge
Monday’s warm, soft quicksand of bed has tried to swallow you whole
Loud alarm clock blared, and you struggled up and answered its call
Take a few bites; brush your teeth and shower; get dressed
Rush and get stuck deep in morning traffic’s long wait
This routine keeps minds distracted, keeps our souls dead
Deaf-and-blind, pale zombies march to serve a numb god
Dare to leave the dirge of the forsaken
Sneak away; remember to be human
Dare to question everybody’s answer
Dare to probe the failure to discover
Dare to learn the secrets forgotten by strangers, friends and enemies
Dare to teach the secrets that everyone else has found mysterious
Dare to journey forth on a path that is barely even legible
Dare to journey forth on your own, and be barely even tangible
Someone is on the planet Earth loving you now, obscured by the a distance none can cross
Suicide is the only real failure, and inner-peace is the only real success
Tenderness and perspective keep life in the light, the ideobalm that cleanses fear
Touch me with a reminder, reach deep as you dare, and handle the cryptic self in here
Dare to reach deep into the murky septic-tank of the heart
Dare to find thick burdens of solid lead that sicken and hurt
Take the red pill; dare to begin the ontological search
Lift the world’s weight, drag it away, and thrust it over the edge
