Confession.

All of this.

I just set this whole thing up
to try and sadly reach out to someone in a strange way.
I don't know why.

I was very bad to them.

I was just feeling lost and they used to admire me
I think.
It was stupid.
This whole thing was stupid.

We all do bad things to each other.
Sometimes you drive people to do things
and even though they shouldn't have done it,
or didn't have to, it doesn't matter anymore.
We all have blood on our hands.
I'm no angel.

Now I just feel bad for them.
The pain of life is hard enough
without someone taking (bad)poetically veiled shots at you
over the internet.
Buddha had it right, we are united by our suffering.

Artemis Kelleher...weird.

Anyway,
I'm done here.

  1. Pity is worse than compassion. And Compassion is pretty fucking bad.

    All these years I never figured it out until now. I just thought you were a slick poet.

    You are one slick poet.

  2. Well now that the secret is out does it ruin the magic?
