I live my privileged life Wandering from interest to interest Connecting with anyone who can bear my strife Thinking pretentious thoughts with disinterest Like how I could help the perturbed I know it takes a lot more than me But I need my life to feel deserved So that before my last sleep I can say I lived my days unreserved But nagging me as I pursue my vocation Through the cracks of all my grandiosity Is the thought of our collective resignation Toward unimaginable monstrosity That could conquer all creation And would scoff at the pities Created by my feeble imagination I know I can't control them Even their creators have barely a clue So I assert my individualism Declare my personal view Like writing this poem Rushing to do it all before the time is due Feeling a sense of awe and daze That besides all the lives My limited perspective will have shaped I'm the only one affected by how I live my life And that is kind of great!
