To enmesh yourself
in the affairs of a small town
is akin to having a fistfight
in a pool of rancid feces
You may win the fight
or you may lose the fight
but when you come out
you're still covered in shit
stupid

The young mind
a series of progressively weaker links
joining to form a slightly coherent whole
misunderstood by outside parties

It fails
to answer many fundamental mysteries
and rather chooses to base what it knows
on what it does not

Abuse
of one's own mind
is the most prevalent
and least detectable
form of child abuse
