WORK
…..til you die,
she was told -
ergs and calories in
-to the slow-roll gears of
economic bloat. Everyone
benefits, everyone
dies. And some press
-stamp’d armature flows
directly down the supply stream,
an alchemical descendent of
her toil
bound for all our landfills, and
rendering her, in plain view, utterly
irrelevant.
.
Work til
…..you DIE, he was
told, and every erg every
calorie, that
bubbles up here, burns off there
fed into the all-consuming queue,
(our all-consumer queue)
just to fuel all of his and all of our
(utterly irrelevant)
illusions.
.
Live BEFORE you die,
…..we proclaim. And
it is subversion.
Subvert your own ergs, your
own calories, build your own
palace, live your own and be your own.
All else is
…..utterly irrelevant.
