Disgust Runs (虫酸が走る)
Disgust runs
Like a creepy smile that flatters
Like sticky, clinging speech
False kindness with a slimy touch
Base nature with worn-out coating
Sly excuses and insolent gazes
Disgust runs
Unripe arguments
Hollow promises
Grating way of speaking
Disturbing voice
Excessive self-consciousness
Disgust runs
Egoists surrendering to desire
Narcissists entrusting themselves to vanity
Fascists throwing themselves into aggression
Terrorists dedicating themselves to slaughter
How many people live in a world where disgust runs?
Even if disgust runs, one cannot escape
One must live on their own strength when disgust runs
Perhaps disgust running is a sign of attachment to the world
One must develop resistance as much as disgust runs

against the movements of disgust in the world?]
