VIII. The Selfish Man161Please respect copyright.PENANAvhfXpgQUIt
161Please respect copyright.PENANAWMdVZqV7fH
he’s idealistic and enchanted161Please respect copyright.PENANAluOI5NFzuJ
with immobile decor161Please respect copyright.PENANAjRxYnK9eCn
he handles authority161Please respect copyright.PENANAJJ4wV14bfy
when he’d dead as a door161Please respect copyright.PENANAwqW6SGY3sQ
with individual authority161Please respect copyright.PENANA8G1mQe2M8z
he’ll bribe it for score161Please respect copyright.PENANAv6hQiTeF8j
because he craves his adulthood161Please respect copyright.PENANAQ3NDIUNcgY
but acts like a chore161Please respect copyright.PENANAq6VE0WjOJe
to all those he’s knowing161Please respect copyright.PENANAX1fvHMbaur
he wears a face of toughness161Please respect copyright.PENANADnZOkmOWwS
but his blue eyes are rimmed161Please respect copyright.PENANAdkJq2ZvLFb
with dark hues of sadness161Please respect copyright.PENANAZextgAamcS
and they’re salty161Please respect copyright.PENANAsb9zMsJskY
like his body161Please respect copyright.PENANAQmLK0qlwvA
and white where he spits161Please respect copyright.PENANA1zM96ExwBp
because his mouth tastes like metal161Please respect copyright.PENANATpWNgBPX9s
from the silver spoons he’s had with bullshit161Please respect copyright.PENANALNSmbQIwZq
that have set him up for failure161Please respect copyright.PENANAEZkZaZkPrZ
for gratification and for trust161Please respect copyright.PENANA5qro42SuYh
which he searches for, sadly161Please respect copyright.PENANAxbMqbbSIHu
and weeps for refuseless161Please respect copyright.PENANA50ICiYoUcQ
inside of himself161Please respect copyright.PENANAvBjxjm98z7
he has no feeling161Please respect copyright.PENANA3JGwzdTVXv
his limbs are hollow161Please respect copyright.PENANA2m2Fi97bIh
and he struggles with healing161Please respect copyright.PENANAPePd0hyPCI

he is despondent and panicked and lost161Please respect copyright.PENANAnDYvBCDZPE
he is skint and unrecognizable161Please respect copyright.PENANAMNrXhcaHde
his blue eyes are gone now161Please respect copyright.PENANAYNm2ezEzrK
and his limitlessness is over161Please respect copyright.PENANAMQUVfJ6Qz0
he acts as though he owns the whole world161Please respect copyright.PENANAb7O1w236kg
but he owns nothing and no one161Please respect copyright.PENANAPW4LPvu4sy
and he never follows his heart161Please respect copyright.PENANAQXzm2LFfcD
or his head and161Please respect copyright.PENANATertRU9cC4
his future seems irrelevant161Please respect copyright.PENANAUQu4ODYHXt
so he’ll try to heal his wounds with some poison161Please respect copyright.PENANAfBjaEpZDzz
but all it does it keep him up at night161Please respect copyright.PENANAh2pSjiFCXG
to let his mind stray and wander161Please respect copyright.PENANAXKgn5kHZs0
where he won’t end his suffering161Please respect copyright.PENANAR2vKmGO9j9
and he has no self control161Please respect copyright.PENANAkTyRIzgK3D
so he caters to his addictions161Please respect copyright.PENANANxae4vV2H0
and he won’t let them go161Please respect copyright.PENANAOMUREgX2Cz
he only sees his desires161Please respect copyright.PENANA9QD7wxCnOC
so he doesn’t work for play161Please respect copyright.PENANAK1Rrmt7QPd
and drinks to be happy161Please respect copyright.PENANAayxvcZH3VD
and smokes to feel sane161Please respect copyright.PENANAXqUb673mnX
even though he does nothing161Please respect copyright.PENANADFMSjczdwz
for other people's money161Please respect copyright.PENANAPMqvtlLYFY
like stealing and begging161Please respect copyright.PENANAMWmBySbZB9

and he is rude to his elders161Please respect copyright.PENANAtswRQ22eMg
he has no respect for his mother161Please respect copyright.PENANAGeiZDNuTxD
but his father’s a yeller161Please respect copyright.PENANA1VsApPOYLh
he has horrible social skills161Please respect copyright.PENANA3NeuoHzdla
and never speaks correctly.161Please respect copyright.PENANAmfcDPmvQ8Q
he is a know-it-all161Please respect copyright.PENANAFaLMW0L0Je
when really he knows nothing already161Please respect copyright.PENANAIo0NzS3Itt
but it wouldn’t matter because161Please respect copyright.PENANA3dNJPKBziI
he wouldn’t know how to share161Please respect copyright.PENANAvdQ9O3JJu3
when he’s soft161Please respect copyright.PENANAubViwUITIN
he wants to be hard161Please respect copyright.PENANAmu48NaAiZ7
when he’s short161Please respect copyright.PENANAml9094rzcz
he wants to be dead161Please respect copyright.PENANArI43e8V3n7
he doesn’t know how to be more161Please respect copyright.PENANAP8yPLESYLA
because he cleans himself with dirt161Please respect copyright.PENANAKiSgXpyHLO
and pleasures himself all day therefore161Please respect copyright.PENANAgXvXMIOsk4
he questions his reality161Please respect copyright.PENANApuYPdGGwyU
and indulges being lost161Please respect copyright.PENANAR75rIibRaT
he spends most of his days in bed161Please respect copyright.PENANAT38GGcbxfy
and condescends humanity’s loss161Please respect copyright.PENANABxeVA7Jgou
yet he sickens himself161Please respect copyright.PENANAV9L8s4VANS
because he lives by himself161Please respect copyright.PENANAWC4euk61iu
in his own time161Please respect copyright.PENANAOkvzcdHXCO
in his own rules161Please respect copyright.PENANAMvnsffYMdq
and he feels he’s better off dead161Please respect copyright.PENANAuOjMa82C5R
he is the center of the Universe161Please respect copyright.PENANAD9i97G5Xd6
He is human161Please respect copyright.PENANAFSVqCDqSrj
but he has no worth161Please respect copyright.PENANA2ECu1FpAeS
he is a coward161Please respect copyright.PENANAHlkYFEiHXP
and he is ill161Please respect copyright.PENANAid85Cu4ipT
he is selfish161Please respect copyright.PENANAizo4gKAkNQ
and he always will161Please respect copyright.PENANA2tBrMjQxHL
be a bedridden illness161Please respect copyright.PENANAejvMox1OpM
whose lost all his hope161Please respect copyright.PENANA8DiaHiK5b3
so with melancholy cries161Please respect copyright.PENANAHWnbgnD9EG
his neck will tie with rope161Please respect copyright.PENANAraGx2Fe8Rw
and he’ll find himself strung161Please respect copyright.PENANAAjDQtKueqk
for an hour or four161Please respect copyright.PENANAlXi99ko23D
overcome with his ego161Please respect copyright.PENANAHzmtVSDB0S
he’s dead161Please respect copyright.PENANAxpaoc4agEO
he’s no more161Please respect copyright.PENANAfmPhXkN4Ji
