Why would we?
Why would we waste the energy
having to design a character from scratch?
There’s more than enough internet personalities
to prevent us from spending a moment alone.
Never understanding what it means to be
accountable.
independent.
No, we can forever blend into a crowd.
anonymous.
cocooned.
Not seeing further than
the closest big presence around us.
That’s how we like it
you see it’s so much easier that way
there’s always an escape goat
the mentality of the mob to blame
and to be honest
we don’t think our shoulders are strong enough
to carry the weight
of our own responsibility.
