A kid thinking about fairy tales and believing in fairy talesActs like a sick god, but like a god.Because even though he affirms that what doesnt exist exists,He knows things exist, that he exists,He knows existing exists and doesnt explain itself,And he knows theres no reason at all for anything to exist.He knows being is the point.All he doesnt know is that thought isnt the point.(10/1/1917)
