No's

No’s Talking to themselves in the third person Detached, separate, ominous—a stilted nuance that does want to know Abrupt attention spans lashing out as the deadends foreclose Cutting back on all the backslapping Having wanted to believe all the smooth lies and all that crap brings Devolver minds snapping Struggling to get out from under makes denial clear That hate will only listen to fear Ground-zero panderers jacked up on anger and lack of reason Birthers, churchers, hardrighters, flinching through all the circumspect treasons The angryanxiety fringe A binge of onthemake bumper-sticker values gone rouge Corrosive these druthers and their blackface esthetic: the avarice acumen pathetic Offish flaws as validation, rage as wisdom What the No generation has become A reality TV worldview that sees itself through its swindled delusions Overmedicated, undereducated—the slander ethic 70%-off prosperity Nightmare personalities who just don’t get it Alibiing the next impulse—gimme now Rationalizing the next urge—gimme now Surging the absurd—gimme now Going for another denial do or die—gimme now
