nice poem, but you are wrong, this is what it is to be alive and happy
one could also say, that "i woke and could not believe i was still alive / i wished so much that i could die/ im stunned at the pain that the world is filled with / what kind of meaning can one find in this life......and afterward, when is tep out to get the paper/ i am overcome by the futility of it all/ gowing through the motions/ i feel the sharp air stabbing my lungs, look somebody just died/ this is what it is to be alive / everything is a mistake the stars / are mocking me with their happiness/ how can they enjoy being lonely/ at night i stand outside staring/ at the sky, distant planets and suns/stunned by the vast expanse of the universe/ in which i am the source of nothing/ nothing good, nothing evil/ i am nothing and am of no importance/ not even my name will be remembered
just throwing that out there

i understand the emotion and have felt it before, but you need to lighten up on the language, and edit it some before it is really good

good job, you figured me out
and I have never actually read the great divorce, i only know about it because my father discussed in passing once
you probably know nothing about Spinoza, so how would you know what his G od is like, and you probably missed the reference to einstein, didn't you

i may well be a narcisist and self centered, wouldnt doubt it for a second (i am, afterall, american)
i have never touched a non-prescription drug in my life, and have never abused "legal" products for the effect of the legal
and i am not addicted to spirituality/religion or anything of the sort i am a jew waivering on agnostic and am as far fromt he right wing fundamentalist christian you are imagining me to be
i agree with you on all that stuff you said about god and BS how could man (women) i often comment on the bs-ness of religions that dont let you think - i prefer philosophy to close minded jesus crap
i agree with you about what makes people happy, and we are all delusional, usually about our granduer
im not damning anyone it anything id rather believe in spinoza's god than that of john matthew luke or mark
i believe in c. s. lewis's ideas of heaven and hell (you might want to read the great divorce)
and trust me, i have no idea what the difference between good and evil is, but if you know please enlighten me

maybe there is no evil only suffering and maybe suffering is based on attachment and an emphasis on wordly pleasures
this could be the best possible world
all evil could be for good
and there may be no God anyway

i love plato and his allegory on the cave never ceases to amaze me and make me wonder about the nature of our world and about the nature of knowledge and his dialouge on socrates trial is amazing -
if perhaps you could remember in the future that the view of a poem is not necessarily the view of the poet it would be appreciated
