Lilith explains
dogmatic views
over pragmatic concerns
and two waves clash.
it is easy to erase wrinkles
with a hot iron,
i give people what they want.
you Val hold on to antiquated
ideals
and that framework is dying.
join me,
no one is stopping you to.
emperors, royalty
have long been praised. there is no backlash
of meritocracy.
meritocracy is just another
wave.
another point of truth,
often subdued
by mountains that have long existed.
governance, law making,
surely you aren't that naive to think
that it is god decreed?
it is man made,
and no one is asking you to clutch
to a bone,
like a dog
unwilling to let go.
see, no one actually fights
for your talk.
they walk my walk,
they talk your talk
and that is all.
you say i seduce, seducing
is bad.
don't you know all of life
is seduction
watch the gamblers
place their bet
and tell me who won the day.
governance, law making,
and i never broke one single law!
yes, i seduced,
a philosophical concept
torn apart in cafe
by philosophers, nerds
unable to
keep their mind spinning.
tell me ... ... now
who won?
don't you know
people are hypocrites?
i betted on that,
you betted on people speaking
the truth and believing it.
and that is your curse.
believing what?
dostoevsky, pushkin, baudelaire
they are talented,
where did they end up,
and how did the journey fare
not exactly what mama told you
of hard work, virtues being blessings
did she? not.
fail to say
real life means
a watered down wine
and the vinegar
sharp, caustic
but everyone has to agree
with the one in power
i saw it, everyone sees it
why then do you sit and judge
like ideal is.
here. it's not.
it's just you
lamenting childhood stories
and everyone else
had already shed.
