Really? This was more of a random rambling... but that really isn't that such a bad idea.
Thanks! I'm probably going to try this.

Man, I don't even know what this thing means... or what it is about. I honestly don't.
What do you guys pull from it? Like what kind of message, or tone, or attitude?
I mean I just don't... know.

first thing that came to mind for me was Gil Scott Heron's poem "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised", not for the content, but rather the structure. the problem is that your version is rather monotonous. that is why i presented my edited version. the message i took from it is that you are pointing out the irony of the fact that we have a hotline for just about any problem and we practically invent problems to create hotlines for, sort of like how there's a medicine for every symptom, even though most medicines create the symptoms you need medicine for in the first place. but really though dude, if you're going to write in a stream-of-consciousness style, you should at least have a general idea of what you are going to write about lol. going and saying "idk wtf i just wrote. do you understand it?" can be cool, in a sense, but it's best to try to convey a message and find that you have conveyed that message effectively. i find that to be the most rewarding thing when i write my poetry, especially the more advanced and avant garde work i've done, because that tells me that even though i was trying to be abstract, people still understand what i was trying to say.

I'm wasn't "trying" to say anything. It was just me writing exactly what I was thinking.
Although, after writing it, I realized there is a sorta meaning to it. If you look at American (and western in general) society, you will see that we have a fix for nearly everything either through a pill or a hotline. Most of the time these create more problems. However, there is no fix for being yourself, or being weird, or being quirky, or being friendly, or being human to one another, as that is widely considered foreign and almost rude here. People are so anti-social and it makes me really sad to be honest. Truly sad.

I remember about a month ago, a homeless man asked me for a few dimes. I had about 15$ on me, and so I decided to just buy him a fucking meal at McDonalds. I know better than to give him the money, so I went in with him and ate with the guy, talked with him, and when we parted, I gave him an old jacket I was wearing that seemed to fit him, cause it was going to snow pretty hard that night and the nearest homeless shelter was over 2 miles away. People were looking at me like I was crazy. I can see why, but still... It's wrong how people look at homeless people, and even each other as if they are not humans, but mere characters to play with in their game of life.
