The Wisdom of Cain

 
some of us  
have it all figured out  
and it`s precisely  
for that reason  
we cant possibly  
fit in  
 
we experience  
the sleights of "man"  
as ham-handed,  
displaying less substance  
than the lowest grade  
snack wrapper  
which blows away  
merely from the wind  
of a moving limb  
before we have  
a chance
to grip it
and deposit  
in a container  
to be hauled far away  
to uglify  
an even More  
wretched Soul`s  
trip  
 
we`ve Been too much  
too often  
too early  
to allow  
our sullenly sharpened  
intuitions  
to get distracted  
by all the dark  
and shiny things  
crudely dangled  
by "society"  
as it`s
octo-pussified 
un-re-pentacles  
continue  
to rudely mangle  
 
so my Dears,  
perhaps Cain  
had it right  
all along:  
 
Get laid  
Get paid  
Slay unafraid  
to Live another day.....
