You lose what individualism you have,
if you have enough of course,
you retain some of it,
but most don’t have enough,
so they become watchers of game shows,
you know, things like that.
Then you work the 8 hour job
with almost a feeling of goodness,
like you’re doing something,
and you get married,
like marriage is a victory
and you have children
like having children is a victory,
but most things people do
are a total grind,
marriage,
birth,
children,
it’s something they have to do
because they have nothing else to do.
There is no glory in it,
no esteem, no fire,
their lives are flat and the Earth is full of them.
