Stop it
(a prayer from your inner self and a mantra to affirm your inner self)
This is what your inner self is telling you to avoid depression and neurosis.
This is what you have to do to overcome it.
Simply words to attain yourself to perceive itself far away from your ego.
Perfection doesn’t exist.
You do.
Allow yourself to change.

Stop it.
Stop struggling.
Stop struggling
against
yourself.
There is not
any Ithaca
waiting for the
tired and burned out
hero.
There is not any
world
beyond
the pillars of Hercules,
when you’re done
munitions.
Accept.
Accept yourself.
And
Let the change
start.
For real.
