        We are

        Born like this

        Into this

        Into these carefully mad wars

        Into the sight of broken factory windows of emptiness

        Into bars where people no longer speak to each other

        Into fist fights that end as shootings and knifings

        Born into this

        Into hospitals which are so expensive that it’s cheaper to die

        Into lawyers who charge so much it’s cheaper to plead guilty

        Into a country where the jails are full and the madhouses closed

        Into a place where the masses elevate fools into rich heroes

        -Charles Bukowski
