Whiny Wobert Smiff:
Paleface poser
Bad-hair bard
Of teen existentialism.
Droning three-chord dirges
Wobbly Wobert
About to burst--
Not into flames,
But girlish tears.
Superficial woes
Suburban emo . . .
Wobert, Wobert
Your mascara is running
As fast as it can
Away from the 80s.
I am ashamed
To have seen The Cure
Live in 1983.
It did not cure me.

Well, their first album was OK . . .

Jumping Someone Else's Train,
Grinding Halt, etc)
