NUMBER ONE DEPRESSION Theres little substance in this reality I seem to be floating through, leaving metaphors to be de-coded in my wake. No mediocre existence can satiate my desires so I'll swim away through clogged pipelines trying to find some way to quell this ache that seems to be pushing its way up my throat straining to be released by scream or cry. Our understated lives have been disrupted by hatred and intolerance and I can't find a relevant reason to stay here any longer with thier venomous words echoing in my head reminding me of how far we still have to go, will always have to go. It's as if I've stepped back into a swirling mass of confusion and dissatisfaction, walking through a mental plane that's long been abandoned and locked up. Trying to find the keys to the answers of the questions everyone's asking me. Wondering what happened to leave such an enormous amount of people bruised and bleeding in the streets beside thier homes crying for someone to take it back, rewind thier lives and fix thier mistakes. Such a dismal place I've found myself in, hoping that I'm dreaming, wandering around the past and not the future, testing my theories on animals before humans because animals cant tell you how much it hurts. God, I hope that Im dreaming but Im afraid Im not because this landscape is far more frightening than any nightmare ever could be. This utter unhappiness could only be found in life. -Kris |

Welcome. I read this once, and will come back to it again later tonight when I have more time. Testing ideas on the animals befor humans....yes, our pets and the wild ones aren't quite as adept as humans in letting us know they're in pain, unless you are really observant of those little behavioral changes that signal something is amiss.(maybe rotten in Denmark?) |
