The Bubble World Delusion

The following is a horrible “poem” written at 3:20 AM because I need to rant ambiguously about a certain someone. I will no doubt regret it by morning.

Close your eyes and dream

               that there is only happiness 

Open your eyes and look

              at the pretty simulacra

                            of puppies and K-pop 

                            of new shoes and cake

                            of smiling friends and-

                                          POP!

There goes your bubble

              because your friend isn’t smiling

                                                         right now

How dare she burst your world

                             that self-righteous bitch

How dare she remind you of the reality

              that isn’t always happy 

                            full of natural disasters

                            full of victims of corruption

                            full of broken families 

                                          right in front of you

                                                               right now

Close your eyes and dream

              and I see you dreaming 

Open your eyes and look

              but you don’t want to see

Praying is enough

              just pray for happiness 

A bubble is enough

              just stay 

                            just stay

                                          just stay

                                   and you will be safe

                                          from her missing smile

You are not at fault for being self centered

              as long as she is at fault for being self righteous 

                                    enough to help another

                     because helping another is the proof that the world is

                                                  imperfect

Everyone is obligated to be happy for the sake of your delusion

              because it’s your god given right

                            your god damn given right

                                to only live

                          in your Bubble World
