A Poem by Jon R.T.
"

it's all true

"
You like my old accounts?

Over now, … talk dumb s**t so I’m like no mos,…

I don’t lit them… vampires drip off energy… all blasé, blah, blah,…

But they make my phone purr, go berr, pling, bling,, ..

So..- .

Be dismissive precisely with the flick of your wrist… like this.

You don't need to flex, B***h…

just keep it hot & fresh-- like takeout.

Stay bored�", I mean it.

Sip one. Take two.

Insist on being introduced.

“I know, I know, I know-- I hate me too.”

Interrupt anything polite,

direct the conversation.

With drunk, outlandish statements.

Just to sparkle rumors-- beautifully rude.

It’s an art. art, art,

Pretend it’s passionate,

to care less.

If they ask you to express--

give impression opinions.

Just… dim this s**t up.

When them goats say baa baa, I say nah da, ..

I’m no family cow so ain’t gone be no moo, moos… on me.

I know, I know, I know real ghosts so say�"… boo hoo…

Don’t explain.

Use gesture.

Blur your answers.

Make it… about.. you.

Everything’s just so…

Lovely,

what’s this place?

Oh--

have you seen my latest?

Did you?

See.

Hola, is this data, no it’s da ta, put lipstick too lips…

Remember:… old is new-used.

Skip “new.” … To what’s next.

Eww?

Wrinkle ya face.

Shake yo head.

Disapprove…

Of course everyone hates it.

It’s the new rage!

It’s art, art, an art.

Very contrarian, dot, dot, hit the dab pin.

Let them ducks go quack, quack…

Just clap back..

You don’t even have to make it.

Everyone’s faking taste, metro, polished, and tan…

Babe-- take it.

Maybe i’ll steal it away.

Yeah…

Simply demand it.

Before you vanish.

How ever you get it in.

It’s art.

Isn't it?
