they
say a hero is partially courageous but mostly foolish that maybe a hero is just a regular guy who made an honest mistake a guy who wants to run like everybody
else but doesn’t
what’s he afraid of do you think?
maybe there are no heroes maybe
we are all driven by fear maybe we’re just a
pack of dogs marking
our territories with piss perhaps the real
heroes know this because
they’ve been paying attention and they know that
this life just a childish game
just
who is and who isn’t a hero? that would depend
who’s side you are on one
man’s hero is another man’s villain
we are all heroes in our own minds
few
ever see themselves as villainous
until it’s too late and the villainy is done
for some a hero is someone
willing to die for a cause maybe heroism isn’t about dying for something but living for something in truth the common notion of heroism is
a fiction an entertainment our prisons are full of heroes but nobody cares about them
I’m
told there is a hero within each of us
but there are more tyrants than heroes within us I pity anyone who needs a hero because heroes are thin on the ground villainy is much more common you can always count on villains to show
up on time
