Heard some freakers talking ‘bout the movement, talking like it was a thing alive saying, “What’s the movement up to lately?” doin’ up the current movement jive, hoping there’s a camera in the shadows recording all their tired recycled prose, not caring if it’s truth they shovel daily only if their public’s rating grows. Any blemish real or just imagined can become the focus for their spotlight’s daily rage, truth is less important than the talk shows and a two inch column on the morning page, but as they speak the smoke around them turns to mystery, as facts become another shade of lies, all they require of us is complete acceptance, they seem to think they are gods in disguise. So, just keep those contributions flowing daily, seems to be the only message they can drive, the world may go to hell in their new basket but the movement died when it became alive. ©2006 by icebox |

"not caring if it’s truth they shovel daily only if their public’s rating grows." Hard hitting work ice. |
