To be or not to be (in non-existentialism): A poem

`O Phoenix, you arose and rearose

And each time again

It was a bigger mess

Do you still think you can restructure it?’

He thought the commotion was yet, like a store

that you can get what you desire without even

maybe a bargain. There is something in the aspiration

of getting what you bargained for; inspirationally,

spiritually. In reality, you get all screwed up feeling there

is a dementia where nobody is listening. And as the time

ebbs and flows, are you trying hard to hide your

impatience? Nobody sees resonance in your point of view

Nobody seems to understand conviction over convenience

Nobody wants your solutions, resolutions…your

idea of order, decorum, justice, righteousness;

even if you resolved to fight to the end! They’d rather

subjugate themselves to who they think are the high

and mighty, so you can’t have anyone or anything

if you don’t want either pillar or post. If you should finally

say to yourself, am I going to deplorably lose the

Mother and Father of all my ideology, because nobody

seems to see sense in it?! O Phoenix, at least you have a death wish:

You came alone unto the world; and you will go from it, alone!

I think it is a spiritual experience, my doctors think otherwise. I am a deeply spiritual person and keep having experiences with otherworldly realms.
