by more than the fingertips but not much more holding on to the way things are at least as much as i can make of it knowing there's the weight of only knowing yourself and the world according to the way you've shaped them in order to justify the way you are or want to be
then the others come around with all their bullshit of having figured out the way things are the others it's easy to see the way things are for them is the way they need them to be so the world makes sense according to what they've determined or need themselves to be too
their multiple choice picks in the exam of the way things are always correct in fitting the way the world needs to be in order for them to be what they need to be a cruel world for the victim while a world mostly fair to the hero
and the romantic choosing the answers in the pop quiz that make his world romantic ignoring the answers for the cynic choosing the ones that confirm things according to his cynicism with them all seeking confirmation from you through persuasion ignoring the fact of all their same grades to convince you the weight of their madness their illusions of themselves and their ways of the way things are isn't weight but their helping hand extended to you holding on by little more than your fingertips all the while them holding on by just one finger
them not fitting the world as it is so forming the world according to them a bit of madness we all possess as we try holding on but the weight of any more madness in addition to my own is more weight than i can stand for i am already mad too and wanting to shake all of its weight i can stand to lose rather than add any more weight when i'm already barely holding on
