Dumbing Up

Dumbing Up

Contrary to popular opinion
I am still convinced
there is no better defense
to block impediments to happiness
than blissful ignorance.. 

The concept that knowledge
is the key to enlightenment
while a well meant myth
will make one a miserable
son of a bitch..

Make denial your ally...

Embrace all counter realities...

What you don't know
will probably kill you eventually
but we're all gonna die anyway
so this glorious trade off
for being momentarily happy
is worth a little personal darkness

I will never embrace denial, i will deny denial to the end. Lol As for allies I need none for I stand with the trees and laugh with the wind. They are my allies.
