We are the 21st century: destroyed, corrupt, cynical, consumption manipulated. Self-indulgent, we are frightened; unaware, we are frightened; disinterested, we are frightened; empty, we are frightened. Evade responsibility. Holders of no values, vulnerable to any myths as pass our visage. Received images crowd originality: we see nothing. Inner voices scream so loud: we hear nothing!

Mewl over then. Sing no more. Read on!

Promoters of our inner emptiness. Scallion-ed, bled eviscerated. Wake up the soul: it’s only talk, talk and double speak. Dollar-ed and trinket-ed dazzled peep in, cringe. Tarnished self: corrupt, available. Surfing intellect of what we know not, care not, unknown even to ourselves. Indiscriminately, discriminate selectively. Blame the other. Our tines project through caring gestures. Cause and effect: power selects. Elders’ wisdom spiked by strings attached. Fenced in, fenced out? Self-romantics using Che. Then grin. We fooled ‘em! Delusion keeps us warm. Reality defied. Bleed the other. Whine to an incontinence of cosmic regret: watch your back. What happened to God? Silly question. He’s out to lunch today! Faux philistines: that scarred and swiped populous of Ghibelline decrees.

Peace? Do we want peace? Another silly question. We want our wants. Occupy a “bolgia . . . it is Envy moving the bellows, with your sighs,” nah just more expedient lies. Denial to cringe. Buy it, buy then buy! Plan Puebla Panama pee. Pee, pee guzzle up and poop with pride. Things collude with power to stretch vast suffering. Circle the wagons: we know whose side we’re on. There is no colour, no dreams, no spiral expectations. Pip-squeaks at the wheel: come self- abhorrence! Time now to reign in those organic, proliferating bipeds: assess what’s done and doing.

Sigh deep. Shirking caring: Such is we!
