Everything
about John so far, every story, every death, every promise of change. Fuck
that. You can forget all about it. People don't change. People never change.
Put a man in the same situation ten times over, and ten times over he will do
the same thing, the same mistake. And maybe he's insane. Because after all,
doing the same thing and expecting a different outcome is indeed the act of a
crazy man. Or maybe he's just John. Same old, same familiar John. The John that
thought he died, and never was so wrong in his existence. The John that hoped
he could, the idealist, the hypocrite. He's always there, same place next life.
It's almost like every time he dies he rises with the same structure. Just as
extraordinary, just as stupid, just as fucked. And another death comes way too
late and changes nothing whatsoever. And it's nobody's fault but John's. He
tried fooling himself, like everyone does, lurking around concepts and ideas
that one feeds to himself in order to feel better about their existence.
John
kept saying to himself, repeating to himself, that the world is fucked, that
the past is better, that he's only stuck for now and that he'll get out of it
sooner or later. But the truth is, it's all a bunch of self medicated crap that
he needed to feed to himself in order to create his comfort zone. John said the
world is fucked. Wrong. The world is fine, it always was and it always will be.
It's John that has a problem, it's the people who are fucked, and the people
that keep fucking, and not in a good way. It always goes like this, like a
vicious circle. People fuck John, so John fucks himself up just to feel in the
trend, and then of course that John fucks others too, because a screw-up never
stays a screw-up without spreading the plague. And he's sorry he's fucked. But
he can't help it. Or even that's a lie. Maybe, just maybe there was a point
somewhere in time when he could have done something, said something to break
the vicious circle. But that moment is long gone, and this is this, and John stays
John for now and forever. There's only one death that can set him free, and
that's not a death that he's ready to accept.
There
would be no arise of the phoenix, no coming back from that one. And John could
never die like that. That's why he must keep going. After all, life remains a
bitch. John has to get used to that, just how the world got used to him. No
more floating, no more escaping, no more running away. The world is never going
to change, and the mind quickly runs out of corners to hide in. And so, the
never ending never changing John Doe must hit his head over and over on the
brick wall that is reality until he learns that there's no way of breaking it,
there's just acceptance and acceptance.
