PM ramblings
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 distant 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...
