Non-Existent Motives
I laugh at myself in the mirror.
Liar. Liar. Liar.
Why should I care?
Why do I care?
Wasting hours wondering—
How my hair looks
How much weight I've lost
How I can get a date
Why ask questions when you know the answers?
Much brought on by life—
Useless rubbish.
Does it matter—
How much oxygen we waste
How many candles we blow out
How many times we say, “Hello”
Why live a lie when there is no truth?
No point in moving on,
Or starting off fresh,
Or living up to expectations.
Eh, what the hell, I’m—
Dropping my comb
Grabbing the Doritos
Hanging up the phone
What’s the point?
Don’t confuse with apathy,
You’d have to care enough to classify life.

Buy a cat
Or just imagine one. That helps me during times like this; I often read or write poems and have a nice bath, too. And since you're a misanthrope, do really care to date?
lol
I'd buy a cat, but I'm allergic, and they're annoying little fuzzballs of death that carry fleas, and I'm not really a misanthrope, and I'm not a cynic either. :)
"annoying little fuzzballs
"annoying little fuzzballs of death that carry fleas"
Scratch that idea I guess and just go read and write poems! Thanks for adding me to your buddylist. I enjoy your writing. You're really are very witty.
haha
Thanks, oh, and no worries, I don't hate cats either. :) And you are very witty, as well. One of my friends quotes random phrases from your poems. It's quite hilarious. I love your writing, too. If I were a Mormon, regardless of whether or not Polygamy is legal, I would marry all of your poems. :)
Marriage
Thank you! You're making me blush! You and your friend are definitely welcome to my pretzels anytime! I promise to never hit either of you in the face with a flyswatter!
Till Death Do Us Part, Dear
Well, as long as your poems and I don't make it onto the evening news, I'm sure we can make some sort of an arrangement. :) And no problem.
