The Beast Within
Rage.
Pure, unbridled, unadulterated rage.
I want to find the ones responsible and jam my thumbs in their eye sockets until their brains explode like that sodding bastard on Game of Thrones. Nothing less than that would bring me satisfaction at this point.
Just like I figured, just like I knew would happen, Jason wasn’t even mentioned at all in Ivey’s obituary. Only his biological family. I don’t know why I even bothered to hope for a different outcome. I don’t even know what the fuck it was I expected. It all just seems hopeless. Hopeless hopeless hopeless. I mean, what in the actual fuck is wrong with people?!?! Besides work this was the other reason I didn’t attend Ivey’s funeral, because I knew if I saw them treat Jason the way that Chad was treated at Max’s funeral I would likely have assault charges against me for something.
I mean, really, why do you think that our love is wrong? Because some old book says so? That’s your argument? Because some mythical god that you’e never seem, heard, touched or talked to told you to hate me? Please. Are you so ashamed of yourselves and the lives you’ve led that you have to make everyone else miserable so you feel better by comparison? Or are you just afraid to face the truth that maybe, just maybe, there’s really nothing wrong with our love after all and you’ve been duped your whole life into believing lies? How does that idea make you feel?
There are two types of people that I can’t stand: religious hypocrites and people that don’t think for themselves, and they’re usually one and the same.
It gives me a certain sense of satisfaction to see that atheism is on the rise, because in my opinion, religion is pretty fucking useless. You people don’t spread love or understanding or joy or anything like that. All you spread is discord and hate and bigotry. I reject your teachings, your beliefs, your temples, your worship, your structure, your scriptures. I reject all of it. You cannot accept me and mine, then I cannot accept you and yours.
I hate that Jason is feeling the way he is feeling now and not being able to do anything about it, but I hate the people that made him feel this way even more. I’m so angry I can’t even bring myself to cry about any of it.
It’s the glare from the reflection
Making patterns in your eyes
It’s the looking back in anger
With every second slipping by
Undertow has come to take me
Got it by the blazing sun
Look at everything around us
And look at everything we’ve done
