If this is Post-Modernism
                                                        Give me Pre-Modernism
                 If rambling, disjoint (oxymoron) T E X T
That flows (*b*u*r*p*s*) like stacatto bursts of machine gun fyre (dam the speling) (or paint splatters)

                                            Is the soul of the M O D E R N  A G E

                         And words are a psych-test emotional tone response monkey wired
Gimmick -- and coherency              out the window is
                                                   (e e cummings did it better but hes dead)
simply the mirrored light of high albedo dust
                                                                  and the dying
fire of di
stant suns


Then
                                                                                                  s o m e t i m e s
                               I think i prefer traditionalism and staid cascades of logic
                         Because some (most) times, If the medium is the message
The message is as empty as a mirror (i n a n e m p t y r o o m ?)

And don't even mention hypertext...
