Sometimes I want
revenge on a world
that refuses to value
people who refuse
to be conventionally
valuable, not for my
own sake
mind you
oh no not that. It's just
not fair. Or, it's fair -
but not just. Either way
fuck people valuing shit
like people as if those
people were shit! I say
what we can do about it
is live exemplary lives
to uplift and inspire,
take full and personal
responsibility for all
the outcomes of our
chosen acts and courses,
disregard
the worthless opinions
of all who'd find others
worthless, and then
once they've taken the bait
and valued us for such uplift
and example and responsibility
and invincible self-respect, then
then
the revenge.
Revenge.
We don't need to plan that part
yet. Just get started on the front
end, we'll
see how it lies. As opportunities
arise.
