Justin Bieber Wearing $10k Nike Yeezys
Fiercer competition keeps coming at
us, one after another—
It’s exhau
sting. People are tired out
Tired of cliches ...
the only thing to do is find the gem
in a cliche ... That way you can make a cliche cool
Realized that today:
The coolest shit is to be found inside
cliches since most stuff has
Been done already,
sinking
into the morass. This poem
Sucked at first so I chopped it up
randomly—added this part about lounging
in bed reading The Elemen
tary Particles
Superstars walking toward a car,
Everybody obse
ssed with the wrong things;
by “ever
ybody” I mean me.
You can’t speak for
anyone but yourself, nothing
Else makes sense; there is no
reaching for the “we” & trying to own it ...
Reading Is for the Rich
the only ppl who read
anymore are
the wealthy when
they’re on vacations, on beaches
they say it’s cuz of the phones: we’re all stuck in them
this includes kids especially
who don’t get any
pleasure out of it
this includes adults!
who would rather watch foo-
watch football
this includes eve
ryone who spends hrs &
hrs streaming
shit, like there’s nothing
else to do: reality
show
after
reality
show
after re
ality
show
it’s add
ictive;
give it
who can hear
me? who’s
listening
there’s always something new to say
it’s hard to tell
what ppl care
about; almost
impossible to figure
the rain,
the weather,
the seasons,
CO2,
fluo
ride in the H20,
IQ,
inflammatory
remarks
??
can’t comprehend it;
can’t even laugh at it
we’ve been
lost in a cycle—we’re dooming our
selves—did Cormac McCarthy really
decide the evil is too strong
for the good ?
