Don’t know how it started, or if it’ll ever end, some call it Samsara, others call it trends, watched a video on YouTube, Mac Miller in bed with Ariana Grande, Mac died last week from an OD/suicide, after Ariana got engaged to another man, then I Googled this, **** photos of Ariana Grande”, what’s the matter with me why does everything lead, to having my thing in my hand, swear to God YouTube is the Devil, got me to watch screens, used to have more freedom, because I didn’t own a TV, but laptops just made it all too easy, now I barely go out, and when I do it’s usually just for food, then it’s back to my bed or my couch, laid up like I’m ill, typing on my MacBook like an addict, I mean how do you think I wrote this poem, I wrote it by typing on my MacBook like an addict, and I don’t know how it started, or if it’ll ever end, some call it Samsara, others call it trends… ∆ LaLux ∆

Hello Darkness my old friend Who knew your herald would be a ***** Spandex, and *** shots, and smirky metaphor— I’ve come to talk with you again Pulling up shorts and promising more. Ride that bike so hard—you’ve got to be sore. ‘cause a vision softly ere creeping Visions don’t come softly these days; they come in your face. Hot diva so young, telling girls what’s their place. Came to me while I was sleeping No time for sleeping, just dancing and ******* “Female Empowerment”’s  now about stripping and ******* And the vision, that was planted in my brain Planting visions of *** is the best gig in town, raking in millions in dollars and pounds. Still remains These images burn; they’re from Hell, I am sure. A woman’s a woman; let a girl be a girl. Within the sounds of silence. Now silence reigns, no beats, tweets or lies. The star’s somewhere safe; a child in hospital dies. In restless dream I walked alone Alone is better than ***** on the floor. Alone is better than pushed through the door. Through narrow streets of cobblestone Call me a hag with flat shoes clutching pearls-- a relic of cobblestone times; to be sure. Neath the halo of a streetlamp The glare and the blare of incessant Youtube promises glory with high heels and **** tubes. I turned my collar to the cold and damp No collars for girls; unless for literal ******* "Submission is **** said Rihanna (smug in her riches). My eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light You can’t look away; it’s everywhere; on awards shows. On radio in shops selling wares. *That split the night And touched the sounds of silence. Fools said I you do not know* How could they know? They’re only teens. They do not know what makes self-esteem. Silence like a cancer grows Name it, shame it; it’s exploitation of women; if we don’t stop it there’ll be much worse coming. *Hear my words that I might teach you, Take my arms that I might reach you, But my words, like silent raindrops, fell… Into the well, of silence. And the people bowed and prayed To the Neon God they made And the Sign flashed out its warning In the words that it was forming And the Sign said “the words of the prophets are written on subway walls, In tenement halls”* And in blood on concert hall floors.

Smoke and Mirrors (with help from Simon and Garfunkel) (an "ode" to Ariana Grande)

hard to sleep
When life deals us cards, make everything taste like it is salt then you come through like the sweetener you are to bring the bitter taste to a halt. I like the way you smile from cheek to cheek Those deep-set brown eyes makes me fall in love all over and over again Those deep-set brown eyes. the quirkiness in your laugh where you have no worry about the world watching, You are free because the world is watching. As the sun drips down your face without a single care in the world, and in that moment there was us. we stared up to the sky sang 'goodnight n go' at the top of our lungs. Boy, you're such a dream to me. before you speak, don't move because i don't want to wake up Wake up Wake up Wake up Wake up Wake up [...] When life deals us cards, make everything taste like it is salt then you come through like the sweetener you are to bring the bitter taste to a halt.
