Prelude to Oblivion

There are times in John Everyman’s existence where he has a glaring epiphany, a shining beacon casting light on the ludicrousness of one’s mediocre life. Let me bring forth a truth: We all wear masks; these are of course metaphorical in nature as I’m sure only a small percent of you don actual masks. These masks, these little deceptions that we are all guilty of, are just one of the products of being human. One can either shun them or embrace them

but they are still a part of one’s life, like it or not.

The masks can be used to one’s advantage say the simple act of while at a party, letting some slightly inebriated broad prattle on about Haikus and Ska. But all the wile one bides their time counting the seconds till this hell will be over and they can get under those fishnets and finally be rid of that erection that’s been plaguing them since watching that goddamn Bukkake video. Jason told them to glaze a knuckle before getting here. Now they’re stuck. On the bright side, if one put even more effort into ‘gothic troubled poet’, one could be depositing a baby-maker in her tradesman entrance before the end of the night.

Most deceptions are rather harmless; a generic rush from Illinois who never drank a beer in his life, in particular wore one mask. Why would he put himself through the turmoil of vomiting and having ‘I love dick’ drawn on his exposed pasty flesh after passing out on a bong combo of Yuengling and rum? Could his desire to be included be so great that he would allow himself to get drunk at Hooters, spit on a waitress and take a dump in the parking lot on the hood of a Nissan Maxima? These indiscretions harm no one. But when said deceptions turn, more public, when a ‘Misallocation of information’ turns into an intricate ball of lies, then we have a problem.

Government officials are infamous for this and what’s more this very administration has been doing it since the beginning. I am no way a sheep, some dullard that swallows every bit of tripe that comes out of mass media so I believe that ‘everything’s ok’ or ‘uh-oh the threat is Orange better stock up on underpants’. It bothers me how any thinking individual would not be outraged by the actions of this administration. How time after time they ignore information only to have it come back and kick us in the dick.

They use terms like ‘freedom’ so liberally it’s disgusting; freedom for whom? Surly not us, well that is to say the thinking American; if it was up to The American Taliban we would be ‘Guns, Jesus and George Bush’ while silly little things like science, reason and fact are thrown out the window like piss from a 1800’s home. It’s frightening that people like Robert Bork, Henry Morris and even old Dubya want to turn us into some twisted Puritan state where frequent sack beatings by Jack-booted police are the norm. Where Atheists and free thinkers are heckled by words of: “Touch not the un-anointed, Obadiah, for they be heathenly.”

I, along with a great number of you, am a realist. I believe what I see, which is why I get along with science and math so well. “2+2 is 4 uh, well lets just…well son of a bitch, yep air tight.” I do not look at mastodon bones and automatically think it is some elaborate ruse by a grandpa god to ‘test my faith’. So get angry when the government tries to take science out of your schools so your children learn ‘the facts’ about how five thousand years ago man conquered the terrible beasts, poignantly portrayed as a stick figure man riding a dinosaur. I know I will.


War is Peace
Slavery is Freedom
Ignorance is Strength
