Insane World

We are the virus

By Robert KegelPublished about a year ago Updated about a year ago 1 min read
Picture from Leonardo Ai

This world is going bonkers

Next up will be down, down will be up, and the Earth will become Flat

Sometimes I feel we’re in a simulation and the controller is laughing as he makes us do fucked up things

Greed is taking over the world

A shooting every week

People hating just because you don’t agree with their beliefs

Are we going mad or is this just a phase?

We need help

We need sanity

We need people with clear minds and ideas to get us out of this nightmare we now call life

I have to watch cute animal video

Just to wash out my brain for a few minutes

If we found a new planet to live on

We’d fuck that one up too

Because we are the virus on this blue ball in the stars

Are we going to get past this

Or are we going to keep leaving new generations with more to clean up

But they wont because they’ll get caught up in this Insanity too.

Maybe climate change is just the Earth saying

FUCK YOU! I WANT TO START OVER!

Maybe we’ll nuke each other to oblivion

Maybe we’ll become slaves to the wealthy who will make us clean up their shit and feed their faces

Astronauts have said

When you see the Earth from space

You get a new prospective and perspective

I wish we all could go into space and see the Earth from above

Then maybe we can get our heads out of our asses and live together in peace.
