A LIFE OF CONVENIENCE: THE INDIFFERENT MAJORITY AND THE WELL TRAVELED RIGHT-HAND PATH THEY FOLLOW
By Casey Allen
PART I
OF CAPITULATION: THE ACCEPTANCE OF MEDIOCRITY
You lie somewhere, somewhere between the earth you rape and the life you waste
You’ve never really lived, but have yet to die completely
You stand in limbo breathing, existing
Refusing to make the most of the opportunities that have been afforded to you
Seeing without watching, hearing without listening
You are a nothing
Celebrate the fact that in the short time your heart continues to beat,
Nothing is what you have amounted to
You were given this gift of being,
But you ungratefully do so without a sense of purpose or direction
A great tragedy it is that this gift be wasted on those who do not wish it be so
The reflexes of your flesh allow you to continue your charade
Convenient, since you lack the willpower to do so on your own
Your instincts tell you when to sleep and when to eat
They fill your lungs with air and force your blood to flow
For some this is enough
To sustain a pulse and delay for as long as possible the great abstinence that is death
You are a failure
An embarrassment of nature
The intellectual capabilities you posses and chose to waste are an abomination
Self improvement and enlightenment are concepts that will remain foreign to you right up until your last breath
Somewhere along the lines Darwinism has failed
The proud and the strong make sacrifices to an unappreciative and overwhelmingly indifferent majority of the weak
Evolution used to mean more to our species than growing in and out of our tails
Some men may have indeed been created equal
Disregarding the excuses of retardation and deformity
These men, however, will not remain as equals
So long as they posses the ability to become something far greater and more powerful than their peers
Only some of us will choose to do so
Far more will gladly accept their mediocrity
Exchanging the often times difficult road to deification for the more comfortable and predictable path of conformity
The Right-Hand Path is teeming with examples of such capitulation
Willing victims of organizational and often times religious hypocrisy
