Stability Is Not Permanent

Stability is not permanent

anybody could tell you that

every now and than our security goes down

bank accounts get hacked, information gets stolen and sold

debt collectors circle your phone number and pass it on to other agencies

One day the boss can't pay you anymore

one day the final check doesn't go through

it bounces, the rent goes up and there is nothing left to do

but wait for inevitable final notice and cry

A pandemic exists behind civilized society

a carnivorous cycle runs the world

it never sleeps and only eats

the nameless faceless monster will only stay away

so long as you feed it what it craves the most

Time, Money and absolute perfection

The monster does not provide insurance for the sick

choosing instead to feed off our misery

manifesting dependencies. Hard work never pays off

so long as this formless, weightless creature runs the world

stability will maintain itself in the most sickening callous ways

This monster is a world of its own, it spits money into peoples hands

it has no mind of its own, no consciousness only function

a man made abomination worse than anything Mary shelly could have concocted

a Frankenstein's monster of government regulations, corporate rules and heartless people who own property, a world built of greed and excess but never for anyone that deserves it. This creature is the rigged system ,the multiheaded never dying hydra of control and it exists at all times around the world. Hunting people, consuming their dreams and feeding them only what they can afford.

There is no way to defeat it, self reliance is an illegality for all this world is built of paper work and we have no choice but to play along or learn to fight it from the inside. The latter choice was my own and it lead me down a road of tears and manic delusions, that is the world I live in now. The world behind the stone illusions, the world of the cave and I've not found the exit for the system continues to heed my progress.
