Existing To Deceive

Existing To Deceive
Domestic abuse ain't 'nything to be singing about
But this ain't singing it's what's it's gonna be all about
It's like the issues take the back of the stands
Lost in the glare of the floodlights illuminatin' 'em brands
When Cohle talks of "the sin of bein' a father"
It shows you gotta look at life a li'l bit harder
Checking out the decisions served up on a platter
Pickin' 'n' choosin' what you eat, but boy, it don't matter
In the end you don't get what you deserve
What you get is what the Egyptians tried to preserve
Embalming and tombing and wrapping dead people up
But like I said, it don't matter, your play in the game is up.

Still, no, wait, not still, I also committed a grave error of leaving out a person from my life history, despite saying in the same conversation, at a different point of time, words to the effect that a nurtured grievance tends to intensify negatively over time. I hope I have not slipped up too badly. Mahak pressed the red button when I called right now. With Mum, I knew in my heart she knew I was going to be serious about Mahak. Hence, at an opportunistic moment was exploited to full advantage, meaning no negativity whatsoever, and Mum accepted the news with good humor; I think her apprehensions are going to wait till December. Now, I have two things...

Money

By Pink Floyd Excellent song. The lyrics pertain to (most probably) the group's experience itself. As such, it is funny and humorous, poking fun at the system of media barons and "chart" economics.  I relate to it even more these days, when all I need is money. I am at peace, content, moksha-esque, even - but I do need money for subsistence. Which reminds me , how do I monetize my writings? Time to fire up the Vaio.
