The Human Comedy
Or
The Ultimate Weapon of Mass Distraction


Humanity awakens each mourning
only
to fall into the throes of sleep.

Quick-sanded in a mirage
of delusional thoughts and feelings
borne from childhood
which
casts an obsessive pall
over
a person's attention
and where -

buried
underneath
a mental prison of repetitive, conditioned responses
borne from parental adherence

humanity
ignores
what

is

essential

for conscious life

the realization

one is alive
and wishes to live.
