Sad State Of Affairs
It’s a sad state of affairs
When you start to loose your friends
No one there to show they care
You even miss them driving you round the bend
It’s a sad state of affairs
When your ego is your compadre
He whispers in your ear 'you’re right and fair
You don’t need them, pay attention to what I say'
It’s a sad state of affairs
To know your smarter then those around you
What’s the point me going to your lair?
You speak nonsense but to you it sounds true
It’s a sad state of affairs
To have nothing going on in your life
Inside you’re dying to get up off the chair
But lack of motivation is your new strife
It’s a sad state of affairs
When you can’t even pay your bills
But to be honest do you even care?
Give me alcohol, shrooms and more pills
It’s a sad state of affairs
To not remember the years growing up
Except the fights between your family and your frère
Makes you think 'I could jump into that slowing truck'
It’s a sad state of affairs
When your writing is what you confide in
Teenage angst mixed with an adults raging stare
On this mountain of life I see people climbing
It’s a sad state of affairs
When you realise you’re the one slipping and sliding

In a free society the state does not administer the affairs of men. It administers justice among men who conduct their own affairs.

Simple Observation #51 - In the workings of nature......
In the workings of nature there isn’t any real essential contradiction
but in human affairs and nature what’s required is some benediction.

Comedy makes the subversion of the existing state of affairs possible.
But which is the State's essential function, aggression or defence, few seem to know or care.

Women in state affairs are like monkeys in glass-houses.
The worst state of affairs is when science begins to concern itself with art.
If I place love above everything, it is because for me it is the most desperate, the most despairing state of affairs imaginable.

A woman is of complicity.
A woman can forgive you
For the advances you made.
She cannot forgive you
For the embarrassment you caused.
A woman can forget you
For the sacrifices you made.
She cannot forgive you
For the secrecy you let out.
A woman cannot admit
The affairs she had.
She is ready to reveal
The rejections she made.
A woman is of complicity.
A man is of simplicity.

Love is a loser
Secrecy and chance help adultery.
Mere romance is the withered blossom,
Notwithstanding the lovers’ liking.
Adultery in secrecy is unnoticed.
Mere love is a scandal published
