HAS IT COME TO THIS?
AT SOME POINT WE ALL STARTED SLEEPWALKING. WHEN THE ESTABLISHMENT 'APPLAUDED' ART, ALARM BELLS SHOULD HAVE GONE OFF. MAYBE WE SLEPT THROUGH AND WERE HAPPY TO SNOOZE. THE 'NEW DAY' NOW ONLY BRINGS MORE INVENTIVE WAYS OF COMPROMISING OUR DREAMS SO SOMEONE ELSE CAN BUY DIAMONDS FOR HIS SIDECHICK. WE CAN'T BLAME X FACTOR - THAT'S AS MISLEADING AS IT IS FOR THEM TO BLAME THE INTERNET. OUT HERE IT SEEMS LIKE IT'S MEDIOCRITY THAT IS THE MONOPOLY. WE VALUE OUR CULTURE TOO MUCH TO WASTE IT WITH A DICE ROLL ON A BOARD GAME WHERE NO ONE HAS PROPERLY CHECKED THE RULES. WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU REALLY FELT LIKE YOU WERE WINNING? THE SYSTEM IS WORKING TOO WELL. EVEN WHEN THE WEAK BECAME HEROES AND STARS ALIGNED WE ENDED UP OWNING NOTHING. THE GREATEST IRONY IS THE GRATITUDE THAT IS EXPECTED WHEN THE SCREWS FEED THE INMATES. FUCK BEING A PRISONER. WE'VE WATCHED THEM DESTROY OUR PIONEERS EVERY WAY THEY CAN AND WE'VE HAD ENOUGH. OUR BLACK FLAGS STAND IN THE SAND ON THE OTHER SIDE OF A LINE ETCHED BY A GENIUS, WHO SAID "EVERYONE WHO LIKES THAT GO THAT WAY, EVERYONE WHO LIKES THIS COME THIS WAY" WELL ...THIS IS OUR WAY.
