Economic downfall and the shit grin on my face!

So I guess everyone is starting to wake up to the impending doom of our comfotable little existence we have grown so fond of in the last 50 odd years. Well as the title of this post might hint I cannot wait for it all to come crashing down. I find it incredibly comical that people are shocked by all these current events. What else did we think would happen when they decided to take all of our industry and outsource it to third world countries. Now don't get me wrong I like paying 30 bucks for a plasma screen tv as much as the next guy, but is it really worth it to exploit some Chinese community for the price cut. I am sickened by the fact that I am part of this mass consumerism movement that feeds the coffers of these corporate giants, While we rape and pilliage the rest of the world for the next hot tech item. When did a private jet and s-class sedan become more important than human life? Now I'm no tree hugging, pot smoking, peace and love preaching hippie, but I do have a thing called compassion. Due to my lack of belief in some egotistic existence of an afterlife I find this life experience to be a precious thing. And I hate to think that I aid the practice of revoking others rights to a meaningful existence so that mine can be more comfortable. So I say let the auto industry fail, Let the economy collapse! Maybe when the cable shuts of and the power cuts out to the video games people will open their fucking eyes and see what has become of this world we live in. So I am asking you if you are reading this right now, Start asking questions and looking for answers instead of counting on the next billion dollar bailout to facilitate your ignorant consumption. We have lived in the dark for far too long, Stand up and take control of your future.....

Still haven't figured it out.....

The walls are closing in around me, there's no way I'll let them get me now,
But it's hard to hold them up, When everyone around me let me down.
So I try to pick up the pieces, With a world of burden on my back,
But a rattled brain and chest pains, Indicate to brace for heart attack.
Is the danger an internal one?...Will that final fleeting breath,
Be a death from natural causes? Or a natural cause of death.
Is this life I chose the lonely road, Paved with rage to warm the cold?
Or is there one with hands to mold this desperate man, whos' soul I sold?
Is this life a life worth living? When my only sight is seen in red?
Is it better to sleep alone at night, or have a corpse inside my bed?
"Who knows", I tell myself, As I struggle toward the edge......
You never know how hard you'll hit the ground, Until you leave the ledge.

Who am I?

thought I would start blogging some rants, poems, and random thoughts for your enjoyment. here is my first of most likely many poems:

I am a worthless wreck with nothing to offer except everything you could ever imagine. A simple man, more complex than you will ever know. I am capable of such a love to fill any heart, and such a rage to blacken the same. I am the knight in shining armor that will reluctantly feed you to the dragon but slay him in the end. I am a walking contradiction. Torn between chaotic serenity, and peaceful insanity. A complete stranger with a strange sense of familiarity, enough to find my way into your heart and call it my home long enough to ruin any chance of future inhabitants. So open the door I think I might stay a while. Who am I you ask..........That's a good question.
