A Hundred Years From Now (Looking Back On My Life)

At the age of forty,

I already realized

that the damage, caused by life

was too much for me to handle. 

 

All that masculin marketing

and teenager targeting

and my insufficient knowledge;

even far more insignificance!

 

That dystopias still end!

 

That there's power in the mystics

Healthy substitutes for fishsticks

 

And a hundred years from now

looking back on cognitive dissonance.
