Array ( [sid] => 69449 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => The So-called Friend [time] => 2004-10-30 13:41:08 [hometext] => This is about a friend of mine who comes from a very priviledged background who I got frustrated with for not being able to understand the circumstances of those less fortunate. [bodytext] => Oh dear, my dear, it seems quite clear
That your reality
In one word, is quite absurd
and silly as can be.

Why do you not have a clue
About the choices that we've made?
Does it really baffle you
That all we want is to drink and get laid?

You, in fact, are lacking tact
Intrusive questions, evil looks.
It's not fine, you've crossed the line,
Just go back to your books.

Behind your eyes all that lies
Is an empty space
Ignorance is bliss and you're in the abyss
With the rest of the human race.

You've come through life without pain or strife.
And i'm so happy for you.
I just hope you can cope, if one day you choke
And luck turns his back on you.
