BEING FAIR

I realized being fair to everyone is the shortcut to failure. It simply violates the number one rule of nature, that is 'survival of the fittest'. If we only open our eyes, this world is not what it seems to be. Manipulation is the name of the game. From world politics and business down to nieghborhood and office camaraderie, everyone is trying to manipulate each other through subtle acts and false sensibilities. This is happening everyday. You may not notice them most of time, but its there.

I wish I had the guts to retaliate or fight back. I wish I can be ruthless, heartless and insensitive to inflict revenge using dirty tactics against these manipulators. But I can't. It simply violates my own well being.

I look around me and I easily see predators waiting to trike me when I am most vulnerable. But for the time being, they pose as my friends and taking advantage of my fairness and favor. Sometimes, seeing the truth is a curse in itself. I want to be innocent again and be happy.

At this very moment, the fangs of my enemies are well burried in my neck sucking me to destruction. They kept sucking my hopes and means of survival and won't let go. I have fangs too, very sharp and lethal but never been used in a fight of dirty tactics. Should I bite back? Once I do it, there will be no point of return. I will become one the of the viscious beast wno secretly rules his world.

Deep inside me is debating how I will play this game of life knowing fully that the rule being followed by the most successul people in the world is the law of nature. Survival of the fittest it is. Fairness are for the innocent and naive.

For now, writing poems keeps me occupied. Once I decided what rule to follow, I will play hard and win this game. Sometimes, winning is all that matters. After that, you can decide if yoir happy or not.

We are living in a world of illusions created by humans to make us feel safe and secure. But reality remains the same, survival of the fittest is the name of the game.
