the case of desire
they say desire is wanting
and wanting is bad.
so I had the desire
of not wanting
and made not wanting
an obligation by telling me
fulfilling desire is wanting
and not wanting
is not fulfilling desire
but there was the desire
of not wanting
and not fulfilling
I needed in order
to overcome the disire
of wanting and fulfilling
I needed fire to fight fire
and water to fight water
and disire to fight desire
finally I got frustrated
and gave up to think
about desire and wanting
and fulfillment
this was the day the local coroner
declared me dead
and I could see all around me
and felt a desire to live
shit I thought
even in death there is desire
and then I saw God
and Jesus and Buddha
and Adolf and Nixon
and many other guys
guys I said
I came here and wanted
to overcome desire
yes you wanted asshole
they laughed
but you failed
because you wanted to fail
you are assholes I said
you Adolf and Nixon should be not here
right they said
we are messangers from hell
coming only for you
it is people like you
belonging to hell
for you have no balls
chosing a good desire
help me Jesus and Buddha I cried
I have followed your teachings
yes you have they said
like a dog pleasing his master
I wanted to please you I said
no you didn`t they said
your desire for getting holy
has made you blind
and they looked at me
and Adolf and Nixon disappeared
life is for living Jesus said
and desire is for honest wanting
next time you meet me you may kill me
said Buddha did you forget
you had no balls doing so
when you came to church
said Jesus did you not
give up your intellect at the door
I woke up it was only a dream
and I felt the disire
to say a little prayer for Adolf and Nixon
not like a holy clown prays for sinners
but as lover with thankful desire
a human among humans...

its a natural part of life to desire... something at least... even if we dont desire it... (at the same time we do desire something else...) ... we can desire and not desire... but its desiring anyway.
its ironic :) :)
I liked this, it made me think. because many people feel guilty about wanting things, they feel like they're being greedy, when really everyone is greedy no matter what.
you look like Frank Zappa by the way... :P
