A new trend

Wow, it's spreading like wildfire. It seems as though everyone cares. I find that to be quite improbable. It's turning it into something stupid and meaningless.
How can you feel bad for another you don't know? Much less report on it? It's stupid, there's no point. Anything you have to say has probably already been said, and probably in a manner that is much less trite or cloying. God, what a bother.
I can't believe it, somewhere around 15 status updates that appear mention it. How much they cared and whatnot. RIP splashed across the page as though it means something from so many individuals. Hmm, well....I suppose I can't think of a more intimate way to express one's mourning than over facebook. BRAVO! It's scathing.

Not like it's a bad thing

So I was unable to resist the temptation
I bit from the apple and...
I wouldn't say I was cast out of the Garden of Eden
More like suspended.
The taste of the fruit brought back memories even sweeter
Nostalgia that appealed to all five senses
Breathing and beating, synchronizing.
Proof of resilience!
Those few hours of freedom
How precious
Not to be bound by rules or morals
Ties nor obligations
There was nothing wrong with it
It felt perfect
It was however, illusory
And illusions are by their nature sweet.
However right it felt to be on the other side of the wall
I know I belong in that garden
that wretched garden where the self-righteous preside.
Hypocrites.
Why?
It was though, so perfect...like your poem.
I can't feel your hand on mine because it is mine.
