what it ain't

Art can't be measured along an ethical bell-curve in which all god's chillun are welcomed aboard the ark.

CATEXTROPHE

i saw the best minds of our society
destroyed by text messaging
car crashes train wrecks
metastasizing devices murdering brain cells
immediacy
replacing understanding
weapons of destruction of the masses

guns don't kill people improvised explosive messages do

by the roadside in the thoroughfare car
bomb truck bomb bus bomb plane
bomb
bomb bomb bomb

inattention is the new concentration
soon we will all be twittering machines
Another catextrophe bites the dust in the wind
where the answers blow
