Cynical Dreamer
What each and every one of you will have accomplished after tonight is tremendous
Let me tell you why
I don't consider myself a hateful person
But if there is one person I hate in this world, it's the cynicist
You know who I'm talking about
I'm talking about the dream killer
I'm talking about the one who turns to indiscriminatory marginalization
When they're feeling down upon themselves
Which, I'd suppose, is all the time
Now, what kind of screwed up logic is that?
I thought human beings were the exemplars of empathy
Communal, gregarious, drawing upon the energies of others
But these folks somehow have the nerve to tell you you aren't great
When nothing could be further from the truth
Who do they think they're fooling?
Really, I believe cynicism to be nothing more than hollow pretentiousness masquerading as intellectual precocity Okay, I'm- I'm- I'm done with that rant.
