Urges
The irresistible urge to cry out when you're born, the urge for milk, the urge for food, house or family, the urge to be wise, to be rich, the urge to belong, the urge to simplify things, the urge to faith, the urge to embrace someone or something for the sake of embracing, the urge to sleep, fuck, reproduce; sleep, fuck, reproduce; sin, redeem oneself, sin again; the urge to do all these in some different order maybe.
The irresistible urge to jump in front of a speeding car after you're truly awake, the urge to find happiness as a consumer good, the urge to be content with the black hole of nothingness and everything that is sucked within it, the urge to sleep and never truly be awake, the urge to slit the wrists or euthanize yourself in the face of pain, the urge to drink coffee and fake it against everything, the urge to read to death, the urge to swindle the world into "knowing thyself", the urge to find a snake and tred over it, the urge to be drunk always to face the absurdity of existence, the urge to love as it destroys you, the urge to get it over with and maybe have a coffee with someone afterwards.
The urge to compete, compare, be tired at the end of each day, the urge to mock the rising sun and the setting sun by doing exactly what is expected of you, the urge to wage a war and be defeated, the urge to escape the war and be defeated, the urge to be asleep during the war and be killed.
This is what it's like to be human. Anyone saying otherwise have the urge to get a ticket inside the biggest club of human beings wanting to win a losing battle and be dispossessed and disappointed later.
