November 2022 – Day 3 (part 1)

Wake up.

Smell the rotten eggs.

Listen to the missiles.

Feel burnt, 

flooded,

high. 

Continuous improvement, 

permanent revolution,

infinite pain

– the ups and downs 

– the ins and outs 

– the far and wide:

PERMACRISIS VICTORIOUS

“Word Of The Year” today.

______________________ 

Once upon a time,

there was an illusion 

that assumed it was a TRUTH,

while living in a dreamworld.

Like three little pigs, 

Illusion was the one that smiled
– butter melted to sugar in her mouth 

Confusion, the silly pig,

Disillusion, the vicious one.

Houses of barbed wires,

houses of foolish fashions,

houses of blocked arteries. 

Not much talk of NFTs.
