Heh....why I choose this as my first piece to post, I dunno. Anyway, I wrote this some time ago on a spontaneous writing thread...and it's the only rap song I've ever written. For those of you who don't know what objectivism is, this may make you sad. Enjoy.


"Salvation of the Damned"

Everyone wants to be... someone who isn't them
Thinking only of, not standing out...
...as a member of the minority
Wanna get in touch with your inner...
Mass mentality, ergo-sociality
Total conformality is the key to...
...self-destruction, immolation for salvation of the...
Self you threw away to save your worthless...
Life, or what you make of it isn't...
...just to give to anyone who...
...wants of it, you gotta...
...force or take from it...
...the meaning you create
What they say, what they do, what THEY want, feel, need...
...its not you, but its what you're looking for...
...security in immobility, fear set to...
...motion the reaper, stand at the stocks, beckon the end...
the beginning, the middle, consequences so clear you can ignore
Can you ignore that burning, yearning, wishing you could earn something more... is there more?
Anyone out there have a soul? Have a reason to hold it, to purge it in the blood of CHOICE?
Choose to feel, steal your life, be real enough to hold your SELF among the self-less
Feel the wave, ride the change, advance the ways that...
...they dominate your mind, body, spirit in ways you've never...
...tried to deny your feelings, but here they are, and you are not
Mankind roots in evil? The roots are corrupted by evil seeds...
...seeds of thought, emotion-less wants, mind-less deeds only to take you in, bring you out...
...of your soul, they will take care of you...
...they are you
Welcome to the mass, check your self at the door.

whats with all the dots?

Dots indicate pauses in reading. Pretty much just separation of thoughts, cause I seriously wrote this in like 40 seconds. The idea was just go until you say what you wanted to...so I did.

As "Morris" says in "Slingblade: "The dots are where I SAY they are!" Incidentally, I enjoyed your piece.

pretty good!
