After watching fight club

my intentions are good, so please don't let me be misunderstood, im standing in societies highway, looking up the highest building today, clutching my fist at it, questioning how we are living today, am i just being dramatic, the movie fight club left me traumatic, having questioning my cause and existence, let me share you this quote for instance "we are owned buy the things we own", can someone explain that to me, credit cards, payments, phone bills, we do not own ourselves anymore, slaves to society, living a life of blinding philosophy, they have us handcuffed, chained, with our eyelids lifted while we watch our generation turn into misfits, no, forget it, forget misfits, worse, a curse, they have turned us into... ill thinkers, followers, weak, no voice, no say, scared, yes thats what we are, scared to be who we are, we have trapped the rebel, we have let ourselves be who they want us to be, watching what they want, talking they way we are suppose to, but what about us, what about the rebel, forget being nice and considerate, we live in a tough world, grow some balls and live with it, forget the conventional, its time, our time to be original, "only when we have lost everything we are free to do anything" anything, anything, does that shake your entire being, the thought to be free from fear, to be anything, yes, anything, fear, doubt, insecurity, let these all burn in the face of your destiny, scary, yes, hell yea, whats to be scared about, failure, what if we fracture, what if it is a mistake, a mistake to be original, i can't lie, im scared too, afraid, fear, it is infectious, contagious, it grows, like weeds, against the wind, can you hear it breathe, can you feel it grow, im human, i fear it too, and fear sometimes surrounds me, it howls at me, laughs at me, but i chose to be different, eccentric, thats what they call it, well fuck it, im believing in myself, fuck the public, im the poet, im creating these lines, i help build these bars, i've fallen and i accept my scars, so i don't care, i have no attachment, all i have is a vision and attached to it is a road map with directions.
