I wonder where your wonder went-- why you stashed away your wonderment? for sake of posture pride and pallor ironic, yes for all the hours of studying "normative" culture-- of faults and flaws and freedom ruptured bashing against consumerism driven lives *Your stuff's not as cool as mine Poor things! how blind! What empty lives! Why can't they see the alternative side? But wait--that's mine! My idea--I divined! Great spirit told me not to sell half price and things I buy--of course they're mine But free trade, bought and paid for I'm down with the indigenous cause, I'm no capitalist ***** . . . But oh my, those pants are nice and that skirt's lovely, too, I'd love to wear it twice wait-- Why dothey have those I'm more hip than them, more open minded, I'm Mother Earth's best friend. or **** at least more hip. More hotter, smile and nod, peace and love, yoga **** on my journey I'm farther. See there! Don't look in my eyes, but at my size 2 thighs in this brand new outfit haters despise . . .* I guess I'm wondering where your love is, I digress from my rant, just show me where the shelf is that holds your origin story, lost child, eyes wide, mind blown by lights and shiny bits and new friends' smile and-- BASS vibrating your spine. Where's the love that widened your mind?

Wondering why wonder
