And so I am drunk.

Now I don't often get drunk and I am lucid enough to tell that I am drunk, however I also notice I find myself asking this question to every problem in the world: Why?

Why can't we live in happiness?
Why can't we do work that pleases us?
Why do we like what we like even though we know there are certain aversions we should have?
Why do women seem to be subjugated openly, and men seem to be subjugated discreetly in some power trip due to their OWN gender?
Why did I take that last drink?
Why am I posting this?
Why do I ask why so much? Maybe I'd be a happy sheep not asking why.
Why?

It may seem a 5 year old sentiment to ask such things over and over, but maybe the 5 year old has it right, though the 5 year old doesn't have enough experience or thought to the future to be depressed or hopeful or a mixture of both.
Doomed to experience, doomed to more knowledge, doomed to more questions of why. it is the most dangerous word in the human dictionary, as it has to exist in every language. Wondering the reason behind the simplest things thought on enough can drive a man mad, let alone the complicated social system, the fight through endorphins and chemicals inside and out, the why of love, the why of hate, the why of the rush while letting the cool breeze flash across your face on an old broken bike that shouldn't run.

I don't understand, and maybe that's what others see as enlightened.
I thought this is all there is,
but now I know you are so much more.
I want to upgrade from my simple eight bits,
but will you still love me when I'm sixty-four?

Even when I am drunk this is not a mindset I can agree with, and I know I should. Fuck it, enjoy the moment. I can't.
90000 MG of Fukitol, no matter how much I take, I am immune. I am not baiting for a response I hope it's not seen that way, I guess I am truly wondering this: Is there someone who feels as such, has more experience, and can handle that question properly, with the stipulation that Fukitol does not work.

See it's because the entire history of the universe conspired to produce exactly this moment and you just let it pass because you didn't pay attention and that is why we cannot have nice things.

Alty made a little American flag when he was here.  I like the idea of it standing proudly in my poomp, not cowering in a hole.
