I took note of your scathing criticism. It’s the best joke of the century. Hell, even of the millennium!
“You should’ve learned how to change.”
Change?CHANGE?!
I changed so hard I broke the mirror And swallowed the shards for breakfast! (The taste is particularly exquisite) (Taste? Heck, you can call it a rebranding!) (With a side of narcissism and a pinch of performance — natural for an artist!) (Believe me — it digests easier) (And leaves less of an aftertaste)
I became: Gene Kingstone, Ásgeir Geirmundsson, Frodo Clayhanger, Rakin Badr Shamoon, Ouya Ishikawa, René Bérubé, Sargent Fresne, Fabien Giroux.
Eight names, a thousand apologies. Eight lives, and not a single one wasted.
Look at the barrel you set aflame! And I’m the neologism you feared to create.
