you should be grateful to be ignored

you should celebrate your invisibility


you should really appreciate

the joys of obscurity


because God knows (and does nothing to help you)

once you are picked up


on someone's radar you'll never know

peace and quiet ever again


but if that's what you want

know that not even a deal with the devil


will save you from the treachery

the utter mendacity of your fellow beings


you should pray to have no face

mon semblable mon frere...
