Just fragments of images and thoughts spilling out of my brain and falling upon my keyboard during the calmness of night.

There are billions of people in this world, millions within this region, and hundreds within our very own neighborhoods. There are so many of us that we affect the very planet that harvests our species. Regardless where we go we are smothered by others in an overpopulated metropolis known as civilization.

As I mature, my ability to deal with people continues to decrease at the same rate despite my open and outgoing personality. I dont think its a decreased threshold of patience, but rather a growing and quicker understanding of how people truly function.

Mankind has evolved to somewhat of a superior status from the thought of doing for itself, so its simple biology and genetic composition that makes us selfish.

How can one be up to his/her neck in people's shit as well as the toxic fumes in which they exude, yet only ankle deep in personality, depth, and character?

Some days I have to just take a time out.


Im just an average guy living in a below average world.
