the modern town hardly knows silence.

i was in wal-mart the other day and it made me incredibly sad. consumerism is overrunning our society. shop shop shop, buy this buy that. "spend your money on this and you, too, can be beautiful!" "fork over some cash and you can slowly buy your way towards the life of your dreams!" corporations are disgusting and their influences are spreading like wildfire. new stores and restaurants popping up like steel blades of grass, providing americans with more worthless junk to keep them occupied and distract them from their sad lives. where have all the trees gone? these big, concrete eyesores make me sad. this life makes me sad. everything is centered around little fucking pieces of paper that only has value because our government says it does.

the same old carbon copy people buying the same useless shit and living cookie cutter lives. it depresses the fuck out of me. i refuse to live that way. to me, that's not even living. it's merely existing. i want something out of the ordinary, something that isn't routine.

i need escape. i wish i could go live on mars and start a new way of life for those who don't want to live the monotone pattern that we're all expected to follow.
