People…
People…
they fall to their own ways,
and they claw at bullshit
which
makes its way.
They tell lies to themselves,
like lies
are not for anybody else.
I sit here,
and I listen to narratives
spun
by people caught in an open room —
a permanent con.
My cleverness has a value,
but its net worth
is not so strong.
But in these situations,
most people are gone.
So what do we do,
when cult‑like behaviours
and group‑like mentalities
scream at reality?
