Endomorphisis

I don’t feel happy

i dont feel sad for long

i dont want to be angry

doesnt mean my feelings are wrong

i choose to be happy,

though I feel like im lying

its okay to feel sorrow

but im done with forever dying

 

Souls

Why do we think?

Why do we feel? 

Why do we write poetry?

My dog sits her head on my lap.

Asks to be scratched behind the ear.

My dog does not lie awake at night,

Wondering if she will go to heaven or hell.

If a dog wrote a poem,

Would I still have a soul?

 

Art

There was evening,

There was morning,

There was day.

Words, out of nothing, create worlds.

Inside, feeling,

Inside, warring,

What to say?

Worlds, out of something, create words.

Yeah, I kinda feel ya man.

Tho... what's with the title of the first one? I originally read it as 'Endorphins,' but...

The last one, to me, is about the struggle to... create, to be original, to find inspiration, etc. I think it's cool how even if that wasn't what you intended, I still got a meaning from it, you know? As for Souls, the last line was jarring lol. Unexpected, but cool. The "I".

Also am I goin' crazy or did you say you believe everyone is resigned to hell from birth or something? Or maybe that no one deserves heaven? Idk.

Endo (inner) morphisis (change)

it is conparing the passage of genesis 1 to how people create art and asking the question of what inspired god

last line is supposed to be jarring. existential dread, questions about the meaning of art and humanity.

yeah i believe the default state of humanity is condemnation
