Some people

Don’t have a sense of humor.

Or maybe they don’t like to be told

What sounds,

Disturbingly,

Like the truth.

Dear reader,

Near or far,

I don’t care if you do things

I don’t approve of.

I’m sure I do things that piss you off.

I’m not here to convert you.

But you see,

This place

Is where I tell MY truths,

And if you prefer fantasies

Of ethical massacre,

Consensual rape,

Civilized Break-ups,

Watch TV.

Don’t read 

The words

Of somebody

Who will die alone,

And is okay with it.

Don’t teach me

How to live.
