To disengage from society
Is not to seclude oneself
But staying clear of the cacophony
To disengage from impassioned arguments
Is not to give up one’s beliefs
But preserving one’s inner harmony
To disengage from one’s thoughts
Is not to disengage from oneself
But holding on to sanity in an insane world
To disengage from active living
Is not to give up on living
But fathoming the futility of everything
