Pitch-black despair, hopeless, nothing to
look forward to, all ideas fail to entice, the
TV series I watched drove all dreams from
my heart, made me feel ashamed of being
human, naked ape standing upright
No sense of values, nothing to which to aspire
the image of wealth tainted, picture of physical
comfort is threatening, it all leads to perdition
becoming self-centred morons, I need an
uplifting vision as antidote to materialism
Life is a nightmare without symbolical meaning
when seen as pure hedonistic existence, it scares
me, causes depression, I can project magic onto
things as long as hope is alive in my heart, hope
and trust that humans are spirits with souls
After watching too many episodes of TV series I
feel dead inside, if modern entertainment does
this to me, I will have nothing to do with it
to protect myself…
