FEARS CHILDREN (Y2K)

Folder: 
JOURNAL #22

for an unopposed year

man lived as if

the great gaping end

were indeed quite near

when in fact at that time

it had only just begun

but he did not know that

and just as obviously

nor does he now

he just thinks he does

why are some such idiots

'Fears Children'

they only further force us down

though thankfully not all

only just a few

the weary and most misguided

now why is it that I can feel

so much overwhelming sadness

in that

perhaps because such ignorance

only further begets

mostly just that

sadness

the mood of ignorance...........

(Dec. 5, 1999)
