Just to get you started: The Symposium of Tomorrow

The symposium of tomorrow
Viewed through rose colored tri-foculs is clearly defined
Remorse … Repentance … Regeneration
The future honors us with the promise of friendship
Then executes us with it’s truths
Our beliefs fill us with hope
With courage
With enthusiasm
While our realities heap humiliation upon our universe
Only the mundane succeed
They do not believe
They do not make believe
They simply do as they are told
Without question
Without qualm
Without conscience
They eat and drink disappointment and despair three times a day
For breakfast … For lunch … For dinner
They read the words of melancholy epistolaries
Melancholy men who tell them
The fame of the famous is fraudulent
Nothing more than myths
Nothing more than stories
Nothing more than legends
These myths … These stories … These legends
They are written by other melancholy men
Other melancholy men who suffer from a melancholy detachment
A detachment that can only be cured by epicurean delights
Purchased with their thirty pieces of silver
Purchased with their payment for betrayal
They are the genius’ who can not bear to feel unloved
They are the genius’ who sell out all who disagree
They are the genius’ who sell out all who allow themselves to be sold for a slice of bread
They are the sublime sages who use both computer and cabala
To schedule
To orchestrate
To sell
The symposium of tomorrow
