usa is the global leader
in democracy and innovation
but usa’s commitment
to democracy innovation
is zero dollars and zero people.
i guess, in usa
one can innovate everything
as long as citizens
do not gain more power.

there are no bad poems.
there are only readers
who are at that moment
distracted, grumpy, angry,
or in some other way
closed to the message.
for every poem that i wrote
there are seven poems
i did not write
because
i was afraid of taking it too far
or i was unable to find the words.
and, in my megalomania,
i feel guilt
that i am too weak
to enlighten you with the truth,
but only way forward
is not to quit
but to keep writing safe and easy poems
like this one.
every week
i invent a new business
which would surely
make me and my family
a ton of money.
but i never do it
because i would need to do
years and years
of boring repetitive work
and this is pure hell for me.
sorry kids,
i will not leave you millions
because i get easily bored.

sometimes i daydream
how i am put in a coma
in between rings of power episodes
so i can avoid waiting for them
and can see all of them at once
last night a friend reminded me
that i should write poems more often.
at that very moment in my head
i came up with the best poem ever.
but this morning i forgot most of it
and all i remember is:
mayonnaise and béchamel
are not so hard to make at home.
the greatest error
in my life so far is
not playing tennis
with irena and wyne
in amsterdam
this weekend.
i will never be able
to correct this error.
the damage is made.
opportunity is missed.
i will somehow learn
to live with it.
philip morris employees
think exactly how
matthew perry’s dealers talk.
but they will never speak or write it
and instead they simply
understand each other.
making new stuff is important
but it is also important to know
which new stuff will never be made
like
hundred people bands,
nurses making million dollars a year,
products designed by kids,
ai that exposes all global corruption.
i woke up last night at 3 am
because i needed to pee
and i suddenly realized
that the best thing about
hegelian dialectic
is that it should teach people
not to be too possessive
about their ideas.
ancient stories
are stupid to us today.
our stories
will be stupid to future people.
and gods will never talk to us
because to them
all our stories are stupid.
i was packing for a trip to france today
and i decided to wear a shirt i do not like
so my favorite shirts would be stay clean for the trip
but during the day i kind of liked that shirt
and i am sorry that i will not bring it
great writers
are not good at writing.
they are only good
at writing in one very specific way.
and there are gazillion ways
we can write.
only you can decide
what a christian is.
there is no one else
who can tell you
what a follower of jesus
should think or do.
everything that is popular
is extremely stupid and useless
because for it to be popular
it needs to be
generic and simple enough
so billions can understand it
without any motivation for it.
smart and useful stuff
is unpopular, hidden, and difficult.
at their last second of life
they will try to hug
their murderer
in hope of human contact.
ai is not a specific thing.
it is a vague idea
that can be anything
you or your boss wants it to be.
just please
do not believe the hype
that it is only a specific good thing
like a polio vaccine or a toothbrush.
do not read, write.
do not watch, do.
do not consume, make.
it is very annoying
that my brain
is working more and more
on calculating stupid shit
instead of creating
amazing stuff for others
do not worry
my little king
to fall asleep
because
your kingdom
although little
is still great
i love trump
because he is the best
at capturing a moment,
making it fun.
sometimes i dream
how i have dinner with him
and he entertains me
and respects me.
he has
the most powerful charisma
that has ever existed
in the history of the world.
but we should stop wasting time
with outdated representation
and start using
digital direct democracy.
i remember
how long long time ago
i would go out,
have a nice dinner,
get a bit tipsy,
listen to some cool music
on my way home,
and write a poem
as soon as i got back.
i just do not do that anymore.
vanessa is super mega ultra busy.
she is more busy
than the busiest person that ever lived.
she is more busy than
billion busy people
working on the busiest project
in the history of the universe.
she is so busy
that we need a new word for busy.
she is busier than god.
so do not expect her
to have time to meet you
for a relaxing coffee.
few days ago
for a brief moment
i felt a deep calm
about my death.
i somehow understood
that i will not exist.
i am not able
to describe it
but it is the first time
i accepted my death.
it lasted a second only
and now i am afraid again
but at least i know
i can be cool about dying.
i must maintain control
i must maintain control
i must maintain control
i must maintain control
i must maintain control
i must maintain control
freedom
genocide
human rights
war crime
democracy
independence
do we really need
the state
to manage
our relationships?
once your basic needs are satisfied
you can achieve happiness
simply by changing your opinion
and the best way to change
your opinion is to read
and the best thing to read
to change your opinion
is a short honest poem
and the best short honest poems
for changing your opinion
could be mine,
but they are not.
i will be in los angeles
from 25th april until 4th may
i would love to meet you
and eat good food
and do a poetry reading
please message me at
+38163268906
i am confused.
why is my dentist
always asking me
about my sex life?
what does my sex life
have to do with my dental care?
and why does he need
such level of detail?
he wants me to describe the smells!
is this a standard procedure?
can someone explain this?
thank you.
there are people
who will crash their car
into you
just for fun
and they will laugh
while you try to kill them
with a dull knife.
some of us know
why these people do this.
we are eternal beings
that exist outside time
but we were trapped in time
by a failed experiment
that created time.
our purpose is to
reverse the experiment
and bring us back
to our original reality
which exists without time.
long long time ago power was
for everyone.
for many millennia power was
for the few only.
the last century or so power was
for the majorities.
the last few decades power was
for the minorities.
in the future power will be
again for everyone.
when i was a kid
i wrote a short story
and others told me
that it is quite pathetic
and it seems that
still today my writing
is a pathetic
and there is nothing
i can do about it.
i am a very empathetic person
and i empathize with everyone:
russians, ukrainians,
israelis, palestinians,
serbs, albanians,
christians, muslims,
americans, chinese.
everyone has a solid reason
for whatever they are doing
but at the end, out of all the groups,
i do favor kids
and i am not a fan of kids getting hurt.
today i again forgot my age
and the whole day i was guessing
that i am 47 or 48.
finally i found a website
which calculated my age
and i was super happy
that it was only 46.
very nice that someone
made a website for us
who forget our age.
i do not want nothing
ich möchte nicht nichts
non voglio niente
δεν θέλω τίποτα
ne želim ništa
truth is an asset, just like real estate,
in a representative democracy
competition.
representative democracy duopoly
divides all the truth
between the two ruling parties.
each party invests all energy
to discredit the truth
owned by the other party.
this results in both parties spending
all their resources
on denying all the truth.
this is how a society stops
to be based in truth
and starts to be based in power.
the only way to save this society
is to innovate democracy
to use, not deny the truth.
genocide is a legal term
invented to maintain an illusion
that there is also a polite war
because many companies on nasdaq
make money only from this polite war.
when we eventually understand
that all war is genocide, not just some of it,
and that all war should be banned,
and all participants should be prosecuted,
these companies would stop existing.
PS I own boeing stock.
this poem is written
in a scottish accent
and should be read
in a scottish accent
all jews, christians, muslims
were inspired by the same
one god feeling
before they chose.
i never again
want to wear a backpack.
they make me heavier,
they make my back much bigger,
they make me sweat,
and i always have to come up
with stuff to put in them.
it is not enough that i never use one.
i want them ended. forever.
please.
how can i be sure
that i was not programmed by media
to think a bad movie is good?
should a movie be celebrated
as the pinnacle of human endeavor
or is it just the result of competition control?
am i confused by other bad products
that make trillions
by manipulating media and politics?
and if i do not know
which movie is good or not
what else is not me?
one of the hardest moments
for every artist
is when they realize
that they are doing
exactly the same things
as someone thirty years ago.
artists who survive this moment
will live on forever,
but unfortunately many die here.
hollywood really really
does not like to work
with humans
and everything they have done
since they started
is to get rid of humans
and work with
easy to control machines
i wanted you all to know
that i do horrible things
to hotel towels,
and the only safe place
are belgrade hotels
because
i do not stay in hotels
in a city where i live
sometimes i wonder
how famous and powerful wipe their asses.
do they do it the same way i do?
they must!
long gone are the days
when they hired people to wipe their asses.
enlightenment ended that job opportunity.
do they use wet wipes?
are they special expensive wet wipes?
do they stick their finger a little bit inside
to scoop it up?
or do they just gently fly over?
if you are famous and powerful
please call me to tell me
how you wipe your ass.
my phone is +38163268906.
i am again
very very very sorry
for writing
all these political poems
but i am a middle aged dad
who knows little about football.
do not think of me
as a grumpy political guy.
i am actually just a grumpy guy… not.
sometimes
i write a poem for a friend
and someone else likes it
and i imagine
how that random person
is actually my friend
whom i did not meet yet
this is a reminder
that visas are a punishment
for telling an empire
to fuck off
would a 90 min film
which follows someone
through a normal day
would be more interesting to us
than most of the expensive
hollywood films made today
do you still believe
advertising, news, politics,
and that products are made
by people who care about you?
if you do, please call me
at +38163268906.
the world is not changed
by books, entertainment, and politics.
it is changed by products.
product designers give everyone
access to the best science and ideas
by designing products that share them.
this is even more important today
when the best science and ideas
are often ignored and hidden.
only the product designers
can save this world.
reading books is boring
reading comics is boring
watching movies is boring
watching tv shows is boring
playing video games is boring
watching art is boring
eating food is boring
using apps is boring
making books, comics, movies,
tv shows, video games, art, food, apps
is awesome
i was considering buying boeing stocks
because some of their airplanes fell apart
and their stock got cheap
and i was a little bit tempted to overlook
that they make weapons
but then their whistleblower killed himself
in the middle of an investigation
and i finally decided this is not for me
in spite of a 62 % growth tip by cnn.com.
never support or join
an organization
which wants or claims
to be the only one
that represents an idea
never support or join
an organization
which does not allow you
to support or join
an alternative organization
there is only
one bad idea
and that is
that there is only
one idea
frank herbert was a smart man
so i can only assume
that his message is
that even
the smartest and the most powerful
person in the universe
can end up
wasting time with politics
instead
of doing something more useful
i started writing
poems in serbian
and i discovered
a whole new side to me.
i can not wait
to start writing poems
in italian, german, and greek.
short term rentals allow us to see
who of the property owners
would most likely be
a nazi or a slave owner
if they were born a bit earlier.
these owners just do not like
other cultures
and the lack of hotel training
exposes it.
12 years a slave is
the most unrealistic movie ever
because
no one working on that movie
was able to imagine
how people actually behave
in such situations
i started writing poetry in serbian
in a separate instagram account.
soon i will start writing poetry in italian.
and later maybe in german.
my ultimate goal is
that people from every culture
tell me that my poems are not poems,
but are actually basic sentences
with random line breaks.
i have to again
apologize
for how shitty and cringe
my poems are.
sometimes i read them
and i am
utterly mortified
how shitty they are.
including this one.
much less improvisation in music
languages designed by academics
less theaters, more cinemas
places of worship increasing in size
almost no local art, literary, poetry, philosophy
less participation in government
impossible to negotiate with or bribe police
powerful live far away
global brands gaining in everything
no local methods in solving problems
and many many more
violence is just a way
for some people to learn more
about others and themselves
i need something
i enjoyed that once
i want it
i crave it, it is awesome
it really need it
this is so tasty
this is amazing
i am so happy to be alive
something is not right
i am a bit sick
i need to go to the bathroom
i will never eat that again
why does that exist
i am ashamed
this world is hell
the word democracy is meaningless,
and is used to centralize power
like never before in human history.
what we are told democracy is
has never existed,
and probably never will exist.
we need a new better idea.
shabalozia
is finally a free country.
they are free
from the oppression
from gumuzia!
in a world in which
a lot of our decisions still depend
on centralized mass media
investigative (real) journalists,
are necessary as an alternative
to corporate and political bullshit.
otherwise, our decisions
will be poorly informed
and quality of life of everyone
will diminish.
every time i walked next
one of those street fruit displays
i was tempted to steal
a banana or an apple
but i never did it
ai will finally
force artists
to fuck around
with technique
and focus
on concepts only.
i am thanking
whoever designed
something so beautiful
as ass cheeks
to hide something so nasty
as an asshole.
maybe it was
god, alines, or nature.
whoever it is,
i am sure they are
very clever designers.
when we are far
from doing things with hands
or people who do things with hands
then we start having
crazy virtual impractical ideas
which can easily kill billions
politicians
use school shootings
and climate crisis
to promote themselves
which means
these problems will
never be solved.
however
scientists would solve
both of these problems
over a weekend.
i do not read books
and it took me decades
to understand why
i do not like it.
it is because
they are so subjective
and i do not like
anything with a limited
point of view.
women and men
have a different reason
why they watch videos
of women working out
it is possible that some pets
do not love their owners
but are like slave prostitutes
who learned to pretend to love
so they would survive
some of these
publicly traded companies
seem like
a psychopath made them
just to show
how stupid everyone is
most of the laws
on this planet
are based on rules
created
in small asian villages
thousands of years ago
parliament is a scam
invented by the powerful
to postpone democracy
we do not need representatives
who sell our votes
to people we do not know
we need to innovate
collective decision making
so everyone participates
again we are tricked
into being passive observers
of a fake fight between politicians.
as long as we believe
one is bad and other is good
we will be their bitches.
they stage fake fights (like wwe)
to appear important and necessary
while fucking up everything else.
all politicians are bad
because they are not innovating
how to give us more power.
instead they only innovate
how to gain more power
with media, division, and war.
i am actually
completely able
to consistently make
my friends laugh
which makes me
a funny person.
therefore,
you should trust me
even though, usually,
i am the opposite of funny.
i wish i was a mother
at least for few minutes
so i can enjoy loving my kids
like a mother
only a fraction of google ads
are properly targeted
and they know it.
google ads could reach
people with the matching interests
but then google would make less money.
google makes most of its money
by showing ads to people
who have no interest to buy.
this is their business model.
google could have solved targeting
ages ago, but they would be poorer.
if we talk
on the phone
and you hear an echo
i just want to make it clear
that i am not in a bathroom
sitting on a toilet
i have no idea
how i write this stuff.
it just pops up!
i am more or less
just a reader.
like you!
it is inevitable
that my poems will become
short funny stupid smart statements
because that is what
everyone wants
never watch a movie
which you have not
seen before
i have seen a lot of clouds
since my last clouds poem
written 19 october 2023.
some were isolated,
some were fast,
one looked like a hook,
all were very cool.
free palestine and israel
from the bloodthirsty assholes
who jerk off
to having unlimited power
over lives of other humans
all knowledge
will be weaponized
and used to hurt people
so it is our duty to make
good uses of knowledge
so the bad vs good
is balanced out
i honestly do not think
that people
like eric schmidt
care about ukraine.
these people always wanted
to make killer drones
or some other crazy scary
murder machine.
they just waited
for the right excuse
and media atmosphere
to express themselves.
once eric schmidt’s
killer drones
blow up millions of people
without damaging
real estate and infrastructure
someone will need to clean up
all the blood and guts
and this is a great opportunity
for the next stealth
silicon valley ai genius
they are not kamikaze drones.
kamikaze were honorable
dedicated soldiers.
these are killer drones
loaded with explosives
which can enter your home
find your kids hiding under the bed
and explode their head.
they are cheap to make
so governments can just
print imaginary money
and make millions of killer drones.
they are more dangerous
than nuclear weapons
because they can kill millions
in a matter of few hours
for a fraction of a cost
without damaging
real estate and infrastructure.
the more people are pressured
by a poorly designed inflexible system
the more crime there will be.
so there are no
naturally bad people aka criminals
but only poorly designed systems
which create criminals
out of naturally good people.
designers of systems
(and everything designed is a system)
should be careful
not to make good people into criminals
by making design errors.
bad person aka criminal
is a good person who does not fit
the design of a system
and the system does not want
to listen and adjust to them.
killing 2347 children
is not a genocide
and it is acceptable.
killing 2348 children
is a genocide
and is not acceptable.

you are an asshole
if you are making media content
which decreases smart cooperation
by promoting irrationality and division,
and if you believe people
should just shut up and buy.
i know exactly
how to fix the world
to the last technical detail
making everyone happy.
it really is very very easy.
i am not addicted
to social media.
i am addicted
to that one in a million person
who is brutally honest.
constantly feeling
extreme compassion
for everyone alive
is a little bit difficult.
i want twenty kids
i want one kid
i want a life partner without kids
i want a partner sometimes
i only want friends
i want to be alone
i do not want to live
if you do not enjoy
the miracle of life
while you are alone
in a completely dark room
no amount of money
or anything
will make you happy
i sincerely apologize
for forcing our employees
to come to our office for so many years
before i finally canceled the office
and switched our company
to fully remote.
we wasted so much time and money
on the stupid office
instead of investing in our products.
english is for the future
german is for the past
italian and greek are for pleasure
serbian is for my family
in spite of being
naturally pretty and charismatic
i work very hard
at being ugly and obnoxious
so when people
want to do something with me
i know it is because
i am the best at what i do
and not because
i am pretty and charismatic
i do not know
when i will write
my first poem
in year 2024
but it will not be soon
today is my 46th birthday
and i am again
fundraising for my nephew pavle.
he has epidermolysis bullosa
and his parents are poor.
to donate please visit
pavlefundraising.org
any amount helps!
thank you!
sometimes
i imagine
another universe
in which my friends
who do not have kids
have kids
and are super happy.
this helps me cope
with sadness
that my friends
in this universe
do not have kids.
i am sorry that i did not fix
the entire world
and made it a better place
for everyone already.
i will do my best to get it done
before i die
and if i do not make it
i will teach my kids
to teach their kids
to fix the world for everyone.
i felt sorry
that i did not write
more poems this week
but then i realized
that when i am dead
no one will care
if i wrote one or hundred
poems in a week.
i hate italy because
it has too much good stuff
all over the place
and i must move around for years
to enjoy just a small part of it
i am just guessing
that being super smart
is to overcome the suffering
caused by compassion
for everyone who ever lived
resulting from being super smart.
so super smart people
must be super smart enough
to save themselves
from their super smartness.
we are made to innovate.
purpose of innovation is to
constantly change everything for everyone.
a single innovation is not a goal.
constant never ending innovation is the goal.
speed of innovation is important.
if innovation is fast we will not adapt.
if innovation is slow we will get stuck.
irena told me
i should
write a poem today.
i said: fuck that,
i will not write poems
on a saturday.
all politicians dream
of managing foreign policy
because this is one thing
where little people
can not tell them what to do.
all foreign policy
always ends up killing children.
not one or two,
but hundreds and thousands,
and tens of thousands of children.
and there is zero money
invested in advancing democracy
but there are trillions invested
in weapons that always end up
killing children.
i wanted to write a poem
but i decided
to play monopoly
with my kids
instead
eight years ago
i moved in this place
and i placed all my
underwear and socks
in a single drawer.
for the last six years
i was thinking
about organizing
my underwear and socks
in a different way
but i never
got around doing it.
i do not like hollywood
because they never
made a movie
with a main character
with whom i can
identify with
for many years i have been
writing a book in secret.
no one knows i wrote it.
i published it as a website
but i did not tell anyone where it is
and it is not linked from anywhere.
it is the most amazing book ever written.
when you read it you will change,
you will become something new.
it is up to you to find it.
if you can not find it,
just imagine that you read it,
that you experienced a deep change,
and that you felt truly liberated.
there are two types of people:
those who believe
only few are ubermensch
and everyone else
is not and never will be,
and those who believe
everyone is or will be
an ubermensch.
never work for the first type.
give everything you can
to the second type.
instagram
was inspired by
the movie pretty woman
to connect hookers
to people with money
with a tiny promise
of conservative happiness
during sex,
especially while getting oral sex,
during your wedding ceremony,
any public speaking,
job interview,
when sharing a jacuzzi or a pool,
while giving a funeral speech,
parent teacher meeting,
while running a marathon,
and many more.
start with a floss pick
then use a brush toothpick
then use a water irrigator
and finally brush your teeth
with an electric toothbrush
today
we have lost the skill
of believing
knowing how to believe
is important because
not everything is known
i am not a fan of metaphors
because
hardly anyone gets them
and anyone assign
any meaning they want
and they are annoying
and anyone who uses metaphors
seems like a pretentious asshole.
just to be clear
when i say i am not a fan
i mean that i am not a ventilator.
a ventilator made of metaphors.
how many more children
do we need to kill
to prove
that outsourcing
collective decision making
to few elected politicians
is not a good idea
anymore
silicon valley
is not anymore
a relentless machine
which produces
life changing innovation
for the entire world
it has became a door
which remains closed
for most of the innovators
and charges the few
for the privilege
of letting them through
all bad things
started as good things
which eventually became bad
because they lingered long enough
and nothing new and better
replaced them.
the only way
to never have bad things
is to always
quickly replace good things
with new good things.
do not let politicians tell you
what is good and bad.
do not let companies tell you
what is good and bad.
do not let media tell you
what is good and bad.
do not let books tell you
what is good and bad.
the only way to agree
with everyone else
is for everyone else
to follow their own wisdom
and all those individual wisdoms
will end up being the same.
trouble starts
when we try to convince others
to follow our wisdom.
there has never been proof
that this actually works.
spies learn
how to play tennis
because
if they are tortured
they can image
they are playing tennis
which will completely
occupy their mind
and they will ignore the pain.
if you do not believe me
ask any spy.
i first write in a google doc
they i publish on my website
then on my facebook page
then i make an image
which i publish
first on my telegram channel
and then on x.com
and then i email the image to myself
and i open that email on my phone
and i publish the image
on my instagram as a post and a story
and finally i publish it on tiktok
and if a poem is particularly interesting
i will ask irena and my kids to read it
sometimes
it is difficult
to write a poem
but not because
i have nothing to say
but because i am lazy
i am not up to date
with news etc
so i am not sure
if we landed on mars
already?
did we build cities there?
when is it safe to visit?
how are the prices?
sorry
my oldest child
just turned 18.
i hope i did not
fuck it up too much.
and i hope i created
a nice little anarchist
to continue my work forever.
i forgive ye because
i do not think that what he said
is what he meant.
sometimes we should
not take words so literally
no matter how literal they appear to be.
and ye is a good opportunity to
practice not getting excited
about literal meanings.
i hope
ye forgives us all
for taking him so literally.
as delegation of work
increases
our knowledge of reality
disappears
we operate virtually
without being challenged
while we make millions suffer
without feeling bad about it
rafael’s lenticulars
are usually 67 centimeters tall.
rafael recently shared a photo
in which he is in japan
and he is smaller than his lenticular.
i am worried that the japanese
miniaturized rafael.
can someone please explain this.
is rafael ok? call me at +38163268906!
this is one of the best poems ever.
purpose of art,
including poetry,
is to expand and innovate
our visual, spoken, conceptual
language.
i guess friends
are not really friends
since they left
matthew perry alone
my communist projects
are always rejected by communists

one day i will write a book
that will change literature.
i will reveal the end in the very start,
and the rest of it will be shit
but everyone will love it and hate it,
and it will be the most boring fun book ever.
do not be an egomaniac
who gives only 1 reward of 10,000 euro
but give 100 rewards of 100 euro.
also it is a bit stupid
to give 1,000 rewards of 10 euro
or 10 rewards of 1,000 eur.
and make sure to reward
everyone in the world
instead of just the people in your village.
i love the real war
the way it was thousands of years ago
when we fought for food and survival
and it was absolutely impossible
to reason with the enemy
and only the smartest won.
what you call war today is not war.
it is a fake mass media bullshit
built with incomplete idiotic ideologies
feeding on the weak and stupid.
when there is a real war – call me.
do not bother me over this new bullshit thing.
when politicians argue
with each other
their only goal is
not to win an argument,
but to prolong the illusion
that we need them.
today would be
a good day
not to write a poem
art is full of errors
while products must be perfect.
but all art is a bit of a product
and all products are a bit of an art.
sometimes
i just think how
poems about clouds
are stupid.
but then i see clouds
and remember
how cool they are,
but i still do not write
a poem about them.
i told my friend
that he should check out
my poems
because
i wrote a poem about him.
but that was a lie.
i did not write a poem
about him.
smart phones and social media
are the most wonderful innovations
that feed our need to connect and learn.
yes, the content is not so good now
but have trust our talents and our work
and give us time. we will make it great.
when i look at the infinite void
of the universe
i do not feel small and meaningless.
i am not afraid of it.
i imagine how we will spread
to every part of it
and give it beauty and meaning.
some say that the only thing
israelis and palestinians can do
is to kill each other.
this is the stupidest lie ever.
the simplest way to end this conflict
is that israelis decide
not to only be israelis
and that palestinians decide
not to only be palestinians.
once the idea
that a person must only be one thing
is gone
the need to kill everything else
is gone.
trust me.
it really is ok
to write
really bad poems
for couple of decades
single family houses
are not actually homes.
they actually holders for
a price that will grow forever.
as long as we have those houses
there will always be
an uncatchable inflation,
that will continuously accelerate.
it is easy
to blame religion
for a lot of political fuckups
but the truth is
that all ideologies
when given a monopoly power
will create hell on earth
just because you
read, own, write, quote a lot of books,
it does not mean you know shit.
books are just a fucking product
made to help you feel smarter than others.
they are a louis vuitton bag.
sure, writing a book
takes a lot of brain effort
but so does masturbating ten times a day.
smart people were much more useful
before books were invented.
they did not need 300 pages to be heard.
if you want to be smart
do not buy things
that make you feel smart.
a reminder
to all those who hope
that a single ideology
can answer all the questions:
it is impossible for
a handful of people
to solve all the problems
of all the people
who will live until the end of time.
i am very confused
by this poem.
i really do not understand it.
please help me.
what does this poem mean?
what is it about?
israel vs palestine
is a result of a false belief
that people can be only one thing:
israeli jew or a palestinian muslim.
it is a belief that that we can not be
thousand things at the same time,
that israeli jewish palestinian muslim
is impossible.
as soon as we understand
that we are capable of being many things,
we will be free,
we will be superhuman.
to me it makes perfect sense
that a culture which cares so much
about operational efficiency
ridicules perfectly normal
public nervous breakdowns
as karen outbursts
please forgive me for being racist.
i can not help it.
it is not my fault.
i am a victim of media brainwashing.
i spend a lot of energy
to unwash the racist virus from my mind
but it is difficult
and it prevents me from doing
something much more useful.
poor people used to use fashion
to look rich
and hide they are poor
now rich people use balenciaga
to look poor
but still show they are rich
this weekend i will sit down
and make the art for my first solo show.
i was thinking about it every day for months
and now i finally have to do it.
i do not know what it will be.
i will discover what it is after i make it.
it will be a study of miltos manetas and his art,
or something like that.
it already sounds super cheesy.
i like to look at art
because when i look at art
i am not looking at
many horrible things out there
some of my poems
are really really bad
but if you give them
couple of years
or decades
they will become
really really good
random pseudo philosophical political rant
clouds
my kids
self-glorification
ass kissing
a call to call me
please let me know?
richard dawkins believes
that people can go from
zero knowledge to science
without any intermediary steps
like religion, art, philosophy.
well, that is wrong.
my poems are usually
very short
because i want them
to be as fast as paintings
and as clear as jokes
like all old people
i know that the world
is getting shittier.
and if everyone
just listened to me
everything would be better.
i also know
this is not true,
but i have no alternative.
marko mi je tražio
da nauči na pamet moju pesmu
kako bi je recitovao u školi.
zato sam mu napisao ovu pesmu
koja je kratka i laka za pamćenje,
to jest bila bi kratka i laka za pamćenje
da nisam dodao sledeći deo:
otorinolaringolozi iz zapadnog sečuana
su dubili na tuđim osmotskim glavama
ispred metafizičkog univerziteta
onomatopeja sa alfa kentaura.
da marko nije dobio opomenu
od nastavnice matematike
napisao bih mu kratku i laku pesmu,
ali pošto jeste – evo mu je!
i am italian
because i care about italy
and i like pasta,
and i do not need
anyone else to tell me
if i am italian or not.
i am also a serb, a missourian,
and a south african.
and just like that
i am now
a fat guy
who gives advice to
skinny people
and just like that
i am now
an old stupid guy
who gives shitty advice to
awesome young people
and just like that
i am now
an old guy
who gives advice to
young people

leader does
what people
tell them to do
people who perform
in a theater
are skilled actors.
people who we see
in a movie
are popular brands.
making fun of stereotypes
is ok – because
stereotypes are imaginary.
you can only get upset
if you consider yourself a stereotype,
which is not ok – because
you are not a stereotype,
you are a person.
i feel something is
quite shitty about milano
but i am afraid to say it
because i do not want
to offend my friends
and i love milano
because it was my home.
what should i do?
there is a reason
why we feel the pain
of every person we lost
every punch we gave
every insult we spoke
for our entire lives
you are a good writer
only when you know
that you will never
fully express yourself
with words,
that no one will ever know
who you are
and that you will never know
who anyone is.
a large magenta shape
with four very sharp corners
is moving very slowly
inside a green square.
and it seems that at least
three of its corners
touch the edge of the square
and that something
very mysterious is happening
to the fourth corner
outside the square.
if i tried to figure out
what happens with the fourth square
but i keep losing focus
and start daydreaming.
scientists and engineers
should stop making fun of
religion, philosophy, art
because without those three
science and engineering
would never exist.
religion, philosophy, art
are easy targets
they appear as nonsense
to anyone using math.
math simply does not allow
this kind of weird thinking.
there is no shame
in dying
because
we never get to practice it
when my father died
i am hundred percent sure
that part of him
became a part of me.
so parts of my grandfather
and my great grandfather
and everyone before
became part of me as well.
i want to thank
all the artist
who throughout the history
have tried to inspire us
to reach the mysterious goal
god has set for us.
thank you! you did your best!
it is not your fault
that we do not get it.
do not let academics, teachers,
business people, and others
take the language from you.
use the language any way you want.
you make the rules, not them.
language is made
by all people for all people.
it can never be controlled by few.
i know exactly
what my life mission is:
it is to save billions of people
from stupidity.
i just did not figure out
how to do it… yet.
finally,
the hollywood is dead
and everyone there
is just a zombie
surviving on rat brains
and pigeon shit
poetry is
a constant rebellion
against the restriction
of language.
it is an everlasting
fuck you
to anyone saying:
this is how it must be.
my father was a great man
i can not explain how
there is not enough space here
so just take my word for it
our feelings and inspiration
are the only truth
and none of our languages
can share it.
we will never know
the truth of other people
and all we will only know
our own truth.
words like god and love
are just simple lies
that do not come close
to sharing the truth.
all ideologies and religions
want us to do these three things:
fix the world,
help everyone,
be better now.
the only difference
is the language and imagery.
gender fluidity
is a step towards religious fluidity
is a step towards ideological fluidity
is a step towards national fluidity.
it is a bit weird to start with gender fluidity,
but at this point i am happy we started
to build a world which uses tags
instead of categories.
for breakfast i am a jew
for lunch i am a buddhist
for dinner i am a muslim
after dinner i am christian
on weekends i am a pagan
the rest of the time i am an atheist
i never noticed before
how obsessed with death
hollywood is.
it is a bit weird.
none of us knows much
and we are all
constantly improvising
and clumsily trying
to do something weird
that only we
understand and like
it is strange that
i have lived so long and well
and if my life ends now
i will not complain,
but my life keeps getting
better and more fun
which confuses me.
i hope everyone
got the same deal.
i do not understand
why all of you
do not write poems.
it is so easy.
just write a poem now!
i made a software company
simply because
the top 100 software companies
are all very stupid
every time when
i do not write poems
for a long time
i wish to start again with
a very important poem
it is very important
that we know
that there are people
whom we never met
who like
the same weird scenes
as we do.
shutter island
would be a better film
if dream scenes were directed
by david lynch,
instead of martin scorsese.
for a short moment last night
while watching a movie
i felt the emotion
commonly called “finding god”.
then i lost it.
it all happened in my head
and it was interesting.
modernists got carried away
and deleted all the knowledge
about how to live a good life.
this made us all
very anxious about our future.
we have doctors and internet
but no idea
what we will do the next year.
i want to know you
as a fellow human being
with all the nice and ugly stuff,
and you can know me.
but i do not want to participate
in your pathetic power games
you need to play to survive,
nor will i drag you into mine.
i really love
publishing poems
on all social media,
i love the likes and messages,
and i am sorry that
my poems are not
always awesome.
all jesus wanted us to do
is to stop trying to be cool
because
you can either be cool
or be something better.
this poem
is trying to say
some very difficult things
and i really need
your help
in figuring it out,
so please read it well.
in a world
made of stories
the best way to live
is to tell
your own story
elon is very rich
and he likes massimo.
when massimo was sick
and needed money to get well
elon did not give him money
but he made a subscription feature
so massimo can make his own money.
i will never join
your stupid
piece of shit cause.
fuck you!
believe me, I am
a very very very famous poet.
i have been
very very very successful
and i am very loved.
god does not
communicate with us
with words.
words are
our invention.
it is year 2050
and public enemy
is still the best
rap thing ever
i am very sorry
but today
i am too lazy
to write a poem
if i just had
20 minutes of free time
i could
mentally prepare for death.
but i do not have
20 minutes of free time
so i live
in constant fear of death.
i will try
to write ten poems
not about
pretentious philosophical things
i will resist
and not write
a pretentious philosophical poem
today
math is
a very smart language
used to describe
very stupid things.
humans
always liked
making very smart things
for very stupid purposes.
unabomber is
a great example
of how being good at math
really is not a guarantee
that one is good
at anything else
if god wants us
to transform ourselves
into higher beings
by making conscious choices
which ignore our animalistic drives
why would god gives us
a super specific idiot-proof
text manual for that?

from universe comes nature
from nature comes cruelty
from cruelty comes despair
from despair comes reason
therefore
reason is just a complaint
and we really do not know
if the universe cares about
complaints
in a world of 8 billion people
all art is made by few thousand people
for few hundred people
i love my kids
so much
that i want to change
the whole world
for them
it is possible
that all of the algorithms
that manage our lives
are based on something
very stupid – like abduction
in the last
second of my life
i will imagine
a perfect future of my kids
so i die super happy
some people are
peaceful terrorists
spies for nonexistent enemies
priests of undiscovered religions
i have lived for 45 years
and it feels so very long
and i have done so much
long long time ago
wars made a lot of sense
because they were fought
for the real survival of our children.
today
wars make no sense
because they are fake
unnecessary clown tv bullshit.
i am very nostalgic
for the good old days of real wars
and i would love to die in sword battle
instead of a hospital bed.
but with sadness i accepted
we will never have a real war again
and i do not have the patience
to be in these fake clown tv wars.
i am not against real wars
which we all love and need
but i am against fake wars
which abuse our need for real war.
when i was young
i cared if a movie is good.
when i was older
i cared if a director is good.
when i was even older
i cared if movie as a concept is good.
i wonder what i will care about
when i am even more older.
all people feel sad
when the things they know
are not understood by others.
we are made like this
so we would teach each other.
enjoy it.
have a great weekend!
yesterday all of my kids
loved schubert’s ave maria
and this made me feel
very confident about their future
because shubert’s ave maria
is not an easy music
for a kid to like.
it is also good that they like
metallica’s the call of ktulu.
sometimes
i really really want to
write a poem about clouds
because poems about clouds
became some kind of a
special thing
which is weird.
i hope i have not ruined it
again.
one of the greatest
magical events in our lives
is when everything
becomes
an unimaginable nothing
some people
choose not to be parents
because the pain
of loving a child
is too much for them.
but when you ask them
they will tell you
that they prefer to travel.
yes it is,
but do not worry
so much about it.
i love my favorite towel so much
that i dry it in a special place
and i use it only for my body
and i am always careful with it.
it really is the most privileged towel
of all the towels that we have.
i am in thessaloniki this weekend,
so please call me to hang out.
i will pay your cheap drinks.
my number is +38163268906.
we love meeting new people.
virgins with high iron blood preferred.
1000 years ago
york was old
but then it became new
and that is it.
this is a stupid poem.
i thought it would be better.
i am very sorry.
thanks to ai
writing 300 pages about something
that should be said in 3 sentences
will become obsolete.
number of empty words
and an ocean of useless data
will stop to be relevant
making meaning important again.
ai will finally end
the age of blah blah bullshit.
if i do not
write a poem today
it will be a shitty day
language is a technology
developed by everybody
talking and writing to each other,
including my poems
out of all the towels i have
one of them is my favorite
it is the right size
it is the right softness
and i like it very much
because it can make
my days better
coca cola drink
is the best product
if you need a lot of energy
coca cola company
is the worst company
that abused a great product
machine learning
would be awesome
if it they used it
to only solve problems
that are best solved
by counting things
as you can see
from my last two poems
and my previous poems
i am very bad at writing poems
about current tragic events
so i will stick to writing poems
about clouds
every 24 years
the evil clown
comes to town
if you are working in an institution
try to listen to us a bit more
so we can work together
on making things better for everyone
ideas that are alone
get very sad and stupid
because they have
no other ideas to
play or fight with
if i do nothing all day
or i am an asshole all day
and i write at least one poem
and publish it online
then i believe
it was a good day
if i lived 1000 years i would:
speak 20 languages,
play 5 instruments,
master charcoal drawing,
design and build many houses,
work as a scientist for a century,
start at least 50 businesses,
write 20 books,
write 100,000 poems,
have 40 children,
compete in almost every sport…
there is no art world.
there is an art industry.
and it is one of the best industries
because it is better to make art
than to make many other things.
never forget
that at one moment
jesus got very scared
and desperate
modernists believed
they are building
a better new eternity
but actually
they were used
as an excuse for change
for the sake of change
without money
people would just do
bad stuff
without the limitation
of a price tag
i was walking down the stairs
and i felt how my socks were soft
and i felt good
are you a messiah?
if you you are call me
at +38163268906.
if you convince me
i will help you.
god did not make
jesus into a king
but into a bum
the image of
my father’s dead body
reminds me that
everyone i see
will end up like that
i know it is cooler to make art
than doing most other jobs
but still, please, make sure
that what you make is real art.
since we do not know
what exactly is real art
there is a chance
that in all the hype
you tricked yourself into believing
that what you make is real art.
i will help you
figure out what real art is
but you will have to trust me.
email me at nikola@tosic.com.
neither science nor religion

and what they know
is not directly useful

take it a bit easier
experts in power
are not the best
at making stuff

are not the best
at gaining power
some people believe
that empathy reduces growth.
hopefully, these people
are not designing ai.
i made 156743poets.com
to motivate myself
to find 156,743 poets
before i die
i will me in NYC
from 7 until 13 april
and i would be happy
to meet someone new.
call me at +38163268906!
everything
that everyone does
is guided by meaning
they see
many men would like
to wear women’s clothing
but chose to focus
on more important stuff
maybe god sent us
many of his children
but none of them were heard
today i will write
one of the best poems
i have ever written
dead poets society is wrong
for glorifying only a few
dead poets.
most people today
know less than ten poets
of which most are dead.
a better film would be living poets society
which glorifies millions of poets
living amongst us.
a lie is always created to hide the truth
therefore it reveals the truth
and is a necessary path to truth
and not an obstruction of truth,
so should we really be pissed off by liars
or should we be pissed off at ourselves
because we are too stupid
to see the truth revealed by a lie?
all people are good
but not all people
have information
they need to act good
there is no doubt
that women are
much smarter than us,
but it is very sad
that they give up on us
and just let us be stupid
forever.
i am wondering
if truly great art
can not be referenced,
at least not easily
make errors all your life
and just before you die
teach others how to fix them
vanessa can make
images of sexy women
which are not sexy at all
accumulation of capital
is unavoidable and not a problem
centralization of power
is unavoidable and not a problem
lack of openness
is avoidable and the biggest problem
i am forty five years old
and ever since i was a baby
i was wondering:
why does smoking exist?
why are cigarettes made?
how can this be a thing still?
why is it allowed?
why do people do it?
how was everyone tricked into it?
why? why? why?
the cold baths trend
is a trick designed
to torture the stupid
fresh meat
few years old alcohol
decades old friends
centuries old war stories
millenia old traditions
it is clear that
humiliation makes us wiser
but how much and which type
is not clear
it is
sunday 12 march 2023
and i still can not imagine death
an old man wrote
the most powerful poem
in his head
just before he died
words are not a message from god
words are our failed attempt to find god
god is not in the words
god is beyond the words

i am happy that i lived
in a time when
ancient cultures still existed
even as illusions
quality of writing
has consistently improved
over millennia
but is till not
good enough
we are not like animals
we are like gods
the phrase
“while i drift into nihilism”
was repeating in my head
and i felt i should write
a poem about it,
but i had no idea
how to actually use it
or what it means
no matter how stylish
my poems are
there will always be someone
who says they have no style
when i was young
i wanted to make
an artwork:
a chess video game
in which chess ai
is actually conscious
and can only communicate
by moving pieces,
and it is up to the players
to have the patience
to understand it.
maybe i will make
this artwork
before i die.
i really do not care
what a word means
because it will be
misunderstood
anyway
i like to write poems
about poems
because not many people
can do something
about that something
so it is special
please
do not underestimate
how difficult it is
to write
these shitty poems.
each of them needed
a unique moment of
desperate agency.
it is possible
that masculine dominance
its depriving us of feminine wisdom
necessary for the growth
of our consciousness

hyping is a marketing method
which is designed to be
so fast and dominating
so it leaves no time and space
for objective evaluation.
hyping is dangerous
because it amazes billions
into buying products
which are not well understood.
it is non-democratic,
prays on the weakest,
and is used to maximize
shareholder profit
without care for the customers
and the environment.
i am not a poet.
i do not know what is a poet.
poetry is not my goal.
poetry is just one of many tools
which help me reach my goal.
it is possible
that one day
i will just give up
on making stuff
so many great minds
fell in the trap
of fucking around with language
it is impossible
to write a perfect poem
because poems use language
and language is always
fucked up and wrong
and it is up to the reader
to figure them out
the only way for openness
not to create tyranny
is to constantly
increase openness.
there is no end goal
in openness.
we always need
more openness.
being born perfect
with nothing to change
is an unfortunate disability
i must work very hard
every day
not to become an idiot.
if i relax for just one day
i can become an idiot
immediately.
chatgpt works
only because
the entire society
was designed
for it to work.
refuse to be small,
refuse to be powerless,
refuse to be insignificant,
refuse to not be able
to make the entire world
the way you feel or think
it should be.
soldiers are
the biggest believers
in the better world
because
they risk their lives for it.
thank you henry rollins
for making the song “liar”
because it made me feel
like i am not the only one
who feels like that
sometimes.
it might be safer
to give a gun to a redneck
than to change the meaning
of the word milk.
digital art does not need
to be digital.
it just needs to make you
think and feel about digital.
there is nothing wrong
with hating someone
as long as
it does not prevent you
from loving them as well
shitty poetry has no respect for
style, grammar, coolness, popularity,
and exists only for the message
whatever it might be
without social pressures
like commies and christians
the society would be ruled
by MMA fighters
although it can appear
that generalized statements,
like this one,
are very smart,
they are actually stupid
one of the most reliable
happy feelings
is picking a snot
out of my nose
i have not written
any poems
for few weeks
and i feel like
i forgot how to
write poems
we spend
99 % of our energy
on figuring out
how to put ideas
into words
the greatest superstition
is to believe that
idiotic ideas are somehow
magically and automatically eliminated
and that bad ideas
never ruin our short lives
and that we are completely
influenced by the best ideas
representation
is not liberation
but just another control
there are fewer and fewer people
who can masturbate
using imagination only
in russia vs ukraine war
one child was murdered
every day
iq scores generalize us
with a single insignificant trait
similar to skin color, age, nationality.
we need to stop
classifying billions of people
using reductive binary tests.
we need to accept
that every human is a genius
from whom we can all learn.
you can adopt
all ideologies in five minutes
if you just skip
hating other ideologies
i am confused
why in many cultures
isolation is sold as luxury.
since when it is a goal
to be as far away as possible
from other human beings?
when you get richer
you should be surrounded
by more people, not be alone.
on social media
i often do not like stuff
even though it looks cool
because i do not know
if they are the real experts
or someone average
taking away the attention
from the real experts
all my cloud poems
are inspired
by clouds
capitalists accepted socialism.
socialists accepted capitalism.
so it is time to stop pretending
these two are exclusive
and start using them as they are:
only two of thousands
of specific solutions
each needed to solve
a specific problem.
reject idiotic divisive simplifications.
accept empowering complexity.
ich wollte
ein gedicht auf deutsch schreiben
aber
ich habe es vergessen
i did not
brush my teeth
this morning
things presented as liberating tech
are often just another stupid useless product.
we already have enough tech
to liberate everyone but we do not do it.
we do not need new tech to liberate us.
we can be liberated by using old tech in a better way.
to understand
how limited we are
by language
just try to learn
a new language
sometimes
i just eat all of it
and leave nothing for kids
one day with a lot of hard work
and extreme dedication
and with impossible sacrifices
i will write poem 1000.
i will suffer and endure.
i hope i make it.
i will survive.
i will do it.
cross your fingers.
pray for me.
thank you for your support.
i really do not want to
write this poem
but something is forcing me to
writing poetry is like taking a shit.
if you are not ready you can not force it.
if you have diarrhea you can not stop it.
you can hate and love
you can be smart and stupid
you can be evil and good
you can have fun and be bored
and everything in between
all of it together
at the same nanosecond
all the time.
do not simplify existence
just because language is limited.
thank you celebrities
for always motivating me
to lose weight and work out
as i get older
i behave more
like my father
and my son
behaves more like me
we should all pray
for the unification of
south and north korea.
there should be no
east west south north countries.
they are stupid.
after a few days
of not being in a mood
to write poems
i finally wrote a poem
the truth can be found
in a long hard to read text
behind a paywall.
finding the truth
requires more money and time
than most people have.
if the truth is not
simple, fast, and free,
then it is hidden.
we never had more truth
closer to us
but out of our reach.
if you watch videos
of soldiers being killed
and you do not get sick
you are probably sick
and you have been made sick
by the power
which wants you to be sick
to not get sick
when watching videos
of soldiers being killed
daniel hale exposed
how military covered up
how military drones
mostly killed civilians
i already miss
the good old days
when your enemy would
cut your head off
with a dull rusty knife.
it was personal and humane.
i do not like this new trend
of drones killing your kids
who knows
what new horrors await us?
challengers of the power
are power hungry powerless losers
pretending to be better
nirvana and metanoia
can not be reached
in such a short life
filled with so many distractions
in a world where
trillions are invested
and millions are employed
to promote weird untested ideas
few critical poems are welcome
the real question is:
why are you bothering me
about few critical poems
when they are
in your interest too?
x games are equally fun
as watching beginners fall down
because
we do not care about the skill
but we enjoy the possibility
of someone else falling down
for about a week
my bmi was 30.1.
i skipped two dinners,
went to the gym once,
did one 20 minute run,
and took a huge shit.
now my bmi is 29.9.
anyone can do it!
we did horrible things
and god had enough of it
and drowned us.
then we built big things
without any meaning
just because we could.
and god punished us
by dividing us with
nations and languages.
then god sent his son
to teach us in arameic
and we killed him quickly.
we wrote his teaching in greek
and wrongly translated it
to all the other languages.
and ever since
we have been killing each other
over what he said.
god punished us
by dividing us
into nations
because
we did not strive
to reach heaven
through metanoia
pavle is my nephew.
he is a butterfly kid.
his skin falls off easily.
each year for my birthday
on 29th december
i fundraise for pavle.
to donate
visit pavlefundraising.org
or email me at nikola@tosic.com.
thank you.
i have not written poems
about clouds
because it was cloudy
mozart
was fucking around
until he started dying
i had dinner with
three young japanese engineers
at my mom’s home
and i asked them
if they like yukio mishima
and none of them knew
who yukio mishima was
we can only control
how we integrate
our consciousness
in individual and collective
complexity.
everything else
is an illusion of control
which just makes a mess.
use abstraction to
merge your perspective
with other perspectives
centralized power
loves to talk about data
which reduces humans
into generalized data points
who need to be told what to do.
decentralized power
loves to talk.
long long time ago
the west was an idea
which absorbs all other ideas
making everything better.
today
the west is an idea
in conflict with all other ideas
making everything worse.
how much can we trust governments
which only a generation ago
were coercively sterilizing mothers,
and we know it takes a generation
to uncover a horror like that,
and there has not been a generation
which has not uncovered a horror?
this poem reflects
all my despair and hope
and is not a showoff project
by a corporate programmer
the heart of snowboarding
is not a difficult jump
that looks cool on a screen
and is necessary
to sell you the new stuff.
the heart of snowboarding
is a slow easy glide
over a soft powder
on a local mountain
with people who love it too.
as global population grows
so is the rich population growing
motivating all businesses
to innovate only for the rich
54 % of art is made by kids
36 % of art is made by retired people
17 % of art is made as a form of therapy
12 % of art is made as interior decoration
0.3 % of art is made as commercial promotion
0.1 % of art is made as asset allocation
0.03 % of art is made as tool for social change
ideologies and religions
allow us
to share perspectives
with billions of people
building our collective.
but they stop being useful
if they are monopolizing
our consciousness
by trying to be more than
just one of many perspectives.
using complex words
and inventing new words
is often a way
to lie to others
and yourself.
go back to the source:
use simple words
and you will be more honest.
write words with less letters.
write sentences with less words.
write articles with less sentences.
this will focus your writing
on truth and meaning.
when we are sick
but do not want medicine
we must go to war
representative duopoly
is an evil
hidden in plain sight
life now is harder than ever before.
technology did not make life easier.
technology made life harder.
life is easier with simple needs.
life is harder with complex needs.
there is a limit
to what mercedes can do
for eight billion people
but instead of
respecting that limit
managers started making
worse cars that cost more
there is a 63 % chance that we lost
all ability to understand and make art
and what we understand and make now
is not art but something else
much less useful
everyone
who moved from europe to usa
became richer and super focused
as if they sold their wisdom
for a ton of money
buddhism: try not to care
hedonism: let’s just have fun
stoicism: do what you can
christianity: say you are sorry, but mean it
capitalism: how much is it?
anarchism: don’t force me!
marxism: the boss should share more
nihilism: don’t waste time
modernism: everything is science
postmodernism: leave them alone!
metamodernism: all ideas are ok
whole my life
i am angry about something.
now i am finally closer
to finding out what it is.
this poem is a fable
about animals
who can speak
but choose not to speak
beauty is not good
intelligence is not good
knowledge is not good
wisdom is not good
fame is not good
strength is not good
power is not good
balenciaga refused to have principles
because they hoped that
nihilist relativist meaningless eye candy strategy
will be more profitable for their shareholders
in the short term
thankfully,
humans always find a way
to eventually destroy nihilist nonsense
in the long term
every word
is spoked by one person
to at least three people:
one other person, themselves, the world.
every word
can have thousands of meaning
but always has at least four meanings:
what the speaker intended to say,
what the speaker revealed accidentally,
what the listener intended to hear,
what the listener revealed accidentally.
one of the better ways
to make others wiser
is to make fun
of their wrong choices.
most will get very upset
but some will change.
do not expect a thank you.
dominique,
please accept my apologies
for not making a product
which shares your wisdom
with the humanity
while providing you
with a comfortable family life
self-enslavement
is reduction of consciousness
and amplification of intelligence
stories are
for teaching,
not for promotion
writing short poems
like this one
every day
increases your wisdom
because it captures
cloudy ideas
into language
it is inevitable
that all the content
and all the connections
on all your social media
will be lost
some knowledge
became so specialized
that basic common sense
from a layperson
can disrupt it
money is an invention
that facilitated
universal and unlimited
collaboration between
all people.
it is not a goal
but a tool for us
to work together.
it is harder and harder
to remind artists
that they are artists
if you had a bad day
you probably did not look
at the clouds
if you are going
to be a slave
might as well be
the highest grossing slave
there is a secret
behind my poor grammar
which i revealed in this poem
i wish i loved my kids so much
to treat them badly
so they would love me less
and be less sad when i die
true listener
equally listens
to the past
to the present
to the future
a lot of knowledge
is inaccessible
because it is not
culturally translated
if someone reduces
your consciousness
you are their slave
did you buy
a new shirt
because
a salesperson
made you feel bad?
principles are stories
we can use
more than once
i have reached
the ninth level of design –
the kamikaze level –
designing products
which can change the world
but do not change it
and instead change few people
who might design products
which change the world.
i can still reach
the tenth level of design,
the god level –
designing products
which change the world.
list of consciousness levels
humans can reach
within a normal life time:
physical pain
overwhelming panic
constant trauma management
rejection of everything
robot behavior
pleasure chasing
efficient calculator
angry at the world
random realizations
aware of self
aware of all humans
einstein told us a nice story
which we accept for now
until we get to the truth
universe is just a
very very very very very slow
very very very very very big fire
describing power dynamics
is harder than ever before
because power has become
extremely complex and covert.
people who have power
do not know they have it
because they are protected
from changes.
people who have no power
know very well
what power is and who has it
but can not make changes.
in business i support the customers.
in a divorce i support the children.
in a war i support all civilians.
in a boxing match i support sport purity.
in a political election i support the people.
sometimes i meet people
who are fully dedicated to something
yet they are completely useless.
i hope i am not one of them.
be careful not to waste your life
thinking you are changing things
while you are only satisfying
the need for change
with your useless nonsense
which prevents real change.
the key to real change
is very specific
and takes decades to discover
and only few can discover it.
be careful because there is nothing
more scary than a wasted life.
do you remember
how long time ago
we lived in small groups
and everyone knew everyone
and had real work to do
after so much bullshit
i am questioning myself
if i would fight back at all
the movie don’t look up
is the new bullshit
taking over the power
of the old bullshit
i am just a single cell
in a large brain
of all the humans
who will ever exist
recession
is the best way
to remove
all the bullshit
that piled up
globalization was created
to help the world develop
using the universal language
of money.
but without
a good idea behind it
it just ended up funding
a lot of really bad ideas.
talking about problems
without fixing them
kills people
metaphor and irony
lived together
in perfect harmony
metaphor
allows us to overcome
the limitations of language
by connecting directly
to primordial ideas
irony
allows us to overcome
the limitations of language
by enabling unavoidable
duality of our minds
it is possible
to talk about ideas only
without referring to
products, brands, and celebrities.
try it now!
in a fight against evil
the first and the hardest step
is to name it
when i like
student architectural drawings
on reddit
i am giving these students
a confidence boost
for the rest of their lives.
no matter how hard their life is
they will always remember
the success they had on reddit
to which i contributed.
few days ago
i wrote a poem in which
a complete word was missing
and i still shared it
and some people liked it
religion was removed
because it is not good for business
but nothing replaced it
i hope
one day
i will believe
humanity is being destroyed
by people who know our source code
and instead of helping us
have exploited it for profit
we can never say:
people are good or bad.
we can always say:
ideas are good or bad.
our individual purpose
is our collective purpose:
to develop consciousness.
to achieve this
we must first reach two goals:
immortality and equality.
consciousness can not develop
when we live short lives
in fear of each other.
i came up with a poem
about how i am a peacemaker
because i can talk to enemies
and understand them
and compromise with them
and change me and them,
but an hour later i met an enemy
and got super upset like an idiot.
the real goal of ai
is not to make
machines like us
but to make
us like machines
in a world which is overly saturated
with extremely convincing content
you must develop your own thinking frameworks
in order to find your own version of good.
if you allow yourself to be passive,
your identity will dissolve.
write philosophy and poetry because it is easy
and even if it is shitty
you will still be stronger
and more independent, like me.
conflict and war
are results of idiotic planning
and not of magical wisdom system
saying that conflict and war
are human nature
is saying that we will always be idiots
racism exists only because
no better idea is offered
to make racism useless
racism is the most destructive idea
that ever existed.
it is virus which prevents us
from becoming what we can be.
it directly attacks cooperation –
our most important resource for growth.
i am sorry
for being too lazy to
write poems for a few days
all i want
is to die as a hero
in the battle for the truth
everyone wants to be a hero
in the epic story of our lives.
if you find the truth you can be a true hero.
if you believe the lies you can be a false hero.
but you can never be a hero if you listen to bullshit.
bullshit took heroism away from our lives.
bullshit is worse than a lie
because it makes us
confused, passive, impotent
truth moves us forward
lie moves us backward
bullshit blocks our movement
just like seeing and talking,
eating someone else’s food
is a way to learn about them
long long time ago
freedom meant
ending slavery.
today, it means
you are free
to smoke and drink soda.
you are free to be stupid
you are free to be alone
you are free to kill yourself
how to love
how not to hate
how to forgive
how to talk
how to cooperate
how to build
how to survive tragedy
how to be happy
how to learn
i would like that there are no
absolute values,
that everything is good.
but, unfortunately,
there is absolute good
and there is absolute bad.
stop looking
for meaning in entertainment.
it is made for relaxation and fun,
not for development of consciousness.
nothing made to make millions quickly
will help you reach nirvana.
finding meaning is difficult,
not relaxing and fun.
there is nothing wrong with this.
you should relax and have fun.
but do not forget to
also take time to grow.
just do not be that stupid
to believe in personal growth
from watching
jokes, explosions, and porn.
we create celebrities
as instruments of our will.
we are never their instruments.
how strong are you
on a scale
from ai weiwei
to thích quảng đức
friendship is safety in weakness.
it is not fun and help.
some are friends with all.
some are friends with none.
we have reached the pinnacle
of emotional manipulation
and have completely neglected
developing our consciousness.
this is why we are not able
to become immortal and equal,
but we live in fear of each other,
and die young and weak.
world would be a much better place
if everyone would complete my
“how to be a philosopher in 4 easy steps”
step 1 – select terms:
chose words that represent
complex ideas important to you.
step 2 – define terms:
define each term with
one or more short sentences.
step 3 – define relationships between terms:
explain how terms
how they change each other.
step 4 – publish it all online
how many times
have stupid warriors
mistaken friends for enemies?
global society decided
to not plan, prevent, and build
but to manufacture crises.
it is not a magical power
we can not control
but a precise design we made.
and this is a good thing
because it means
that we can redesign everything.
it is almost impossible to
make money from houses
and make money from ideas
problem
with a system
that feeds on crisis
is that eventually
it eats all crises
and dies
the meaning crisis
will be exploited by brands
without any real meaning offered
kanye west is a racist antisemite.
he is a product of a system
which promotes
uneducated out of control people
above thousands of years
of science and tradition.
he is the new slobodan milosevic.
our lives are controlled by processes
designed by people
who do not care about us.
education, credits, careers, real estate
are designed to increase numbers
and decrease consciousness.
severe punishments
for choices outside these processes
create future slave generations.
first step of the resistance
is to understand that the loss of freedom
is greater than the loss process benefits.
the only real turn on in sex
is the pleasure of your partner.
everything else
is only a way to reach this
no matter
how complicated and weird it gets.
being just a bit scared of sex
is healthy.
when you stop being scared
you will start having bad sex
or even not have sex anymore.
the only reason
we do not have
a single application
for both
vector and raster editing
is because adobe
wants to double the money
never forget that
someone synchronized
fellini’s la dolce vita
fat and dirty people
enjoy sex more
than clean and fit people.
i tried both
but i could be wrong.
guys,
real sexual maturity is achieved
only when you discover
when a woman is too pregnant for sex.
using butter, mustard, and bbq sauce
in sex
is better than
having no sex at all.
guys,
watching busty shemales on females porn
is less gay than hetero porn,
but having sex with a shemale
is very gay.
girls,
if a guy wants
to put a finger in your ass
this does not mean
he wants a finger up his ass.
you are welcome.
alternating current
climate crisis
non-aligned movement
at this point in my life
i feel very comfortable
with artists’ rants.
i am still to meet an artist
who isn’t ranting nonsense
most of the time.
i learned to respect it
and have accepted
their undefined terminology.
non-binary person
will go crazy
in a binary world
open evil
is not evil anymore
evil is always hidden
the difference between
ye and bayc
is that ye is open
is he a crazy person
ranting nonsense
for absolutely no reason?
is he a genius
trying to liberate us
from oppressive divisive ideas
sacrificing himself
through extreme provocation?
is he a desperate person
trying to liberate
his and our mind
from programmed
idiotic stereotypes?
is he all of the above?
i would not have understood
the glory of war
without talking to vietnam vets
sometimes
i want to be a son again
and sometimes a father
sometimes
i want to be a soldier
and sometimes a pacifist
sometimes
i want to be a friend
and sometimes an enemy
7 very large meals
90 mins on the toilet
playing decade old games
nothing to watch
writing random poems
lack of distraction from death
total inability to plan
i am sure there is
enormous value in a collective
but i am afraid we lost it
by accident
few years ago.
or maybe not.
human kind
is constantly oscillating
between misery and greatness
making it impossible for me
to say if we are
unlocking the secrets of universe
or if we are
going towards certain doom
the goal of all automation
is to allow development
of our consciousness.
it should not make us stupider
but smarter,
and by smarter i do not mean
better at paying bills.
we are the best
we are the worst
we offer some unique value
one day
i will have
the last sex of my life
just
do not give a fuck
and do not swear
ideas are great
and
products change the world
when will i die?
how will i die?
superman is the most
successful fear mongering
propaganda against technocracy
i disagree that we need
an alien to protect us
from scientists and engineers
i believe that
scientists and engineers
actually want to help us
3.1 % about money
30 % about people
99 % about changing the world
every time
you outsource thinking
you become stupider
we should automate
boring physical activities
to have more time for
higher level thinking
we should not automate
higher level thinking
to have more time for
boring physical activities
i am a great writer
not because
i know grammar
but because
i want to share
right or left
stick or carrot
good or bad
complexity of human society
is exponentially increasing
forcing old ideas to merge
usa has failed
to create universal ideas
that truly unite all humans
my youngest son
is still making fun of me
for not using rhyme in my poems
i am not a chelsea fan
but i was a bit sad
when i saw an old photo
of the samford bridge
messages
in visual art
can not be written
without
religion, art, philosophy
there is no truth
spectacle is fun but stupid.
her message is not fun but smart.
together they are fun and smart.
the most successful human trait
in the current social systems
is the future of humanity
if art is truth
and truth is an ontology
if it is not an ontology it is not art
the complexity of reality,
including society,
is impossible to show on instagram
as soon as i become famous
my poetry will be erased
because it is not binary
thank you to all the women
who do not report rape
to preserve our sense of control
i was not afraid
of green people until they
became a political weapon
enter an industry
without basic consumer marketing
and add basic consumer marketing
there is so little
that can be said
with these short poems
sometimes i just want to relax
and not write about the world
and just write about clouds

there are no hardware upgrades
so start upgrading software
using words and images

i am afraid of automated pricing
actually i am afraid of both

trust the chinese wisdom
that there is a lot of wisdom
in the stupidest shit you heard
giorgia is the last hope
of dying grandparents
living in dying towns
finally i am able to
forgive will smith
and enjoy his movies again
tradition is when
kids are smart enough to know
when to trust their parents
just because something is
metamodern
it does not mean it is any good
these short poems are
the stupidest things i ever wrote
but they get likes on instagram
vikings wanted
the same as everyone else:
to die with dignity
it is still safer
to promote what you can offer
rather than bitch about you loss
never forget that
you do not care about money
and you only use it as a tool
although it has wonderful clouds
do not visit belgrade
because i like how isolated it is
metamodernism
is best explained
as an opposite to zero-sum
johnny depp chose
to be in kids movies only because
he is not a believable action hero
as long as we are mortal
we will never outrun death
with unlimited growth
sure, science is great
but it can only solve
few problems here and there
i might sound gloomy
but we lose a bit of humanity
when our instincts are rewarded
to escape the russian draft
you can stay with us in belgrade.

true artists are invisible
because they are not competing
but only sharing
if i fix the whole world
i will fix it for me
and if that helps others – great!
just because
i did not write poems about clouds
does not mean i do not look at them anymore
death is not a word for death.
it is a word we use because
we are too afraid to be honest about it.
when i was young
i was recruited
without even knowing it
the greatest error in every war
is that false reduction of human needs
to binary caricatures
preventing real listening
necessary for true human cooperation.
our true enemy is lack of understanding
of gradual damage caused by the silent change.
metamodernism is
directly indirect because it is
covertly overt
all my life
i have been searching for god
and every day i am closer
i hope that
before i die
i write a poem 10054
metamodernism is
ideological fluidity
enabling connecting to everyone
i need to figure out why
i felt sorry with
beckham crying for the queen
for as long as i remember
i refused to stand up for national anthems
but today i am reconsidering it
just like most of the isms
metamodernism is way to forgive ourselves
for the evils we did for the sake of change
the languages we speak
already contain everything we need
to unlock the next level reality
i wrote the previous poem
for my son Marko
for his school assignment
Marko ima za domaći
Da nauči bilo koju pesmu napamet.
Kao Markov tata koji je i pesnik
Čekao sam ovu priliku ceo život.
Odmah sam napisao ovu pesmu
U nadi da će mu se svideti.
always remember that
“extreme” public thinkers
tone down what people actually want
if modernism and postmodernism
are left alone
they will suck out all the fun out of us
i will try to write shorter poems
because they are easier to read
and i can use a bigger font in instagram
universe is absurd
so we invented beauty
to deal with it
everyone wants
to discover the secret laws of nature
and describe them in a magical language
saying that something specific
in a war is a crime
implies war is not a crime
the main difference between
a real philosopher
and
an academic philosopher
is that the real philosopher
feels how stupid and useless
all previous philosophers are
and knows that he will be
equally stupid to future philosophers
it is questionable
how much of the world we built
is based on a huge error
of just hacking million years old emotions.
and it is possible
that everything is based on an error
and that this is not the only and the best outcome
because we are too fast for natural quality control.
one hour after
my poems
are not mine
because
they are written
by some stranger
i might have met
long long time ago
in my madness
my art is still free
from being part of anything
except me
game of thrones started great
because martin solved the problem
tolkien failed to solve:
how to tell a story without
the idiotic binary good versus bad.
but the business people
took over and simplified the story into
the idiotic binary good versus bad
thinking they can make more money
and they bored us to death.
in part it is our fault
because we constantly forget
that our minds reject
the idiotic binary good vs bad
because it is a lie.
the truth is
that we never feel a single emotion
about anything.
for example, we admire, fear, and hate a tiger
at the same time.
no matter how much
business people want us to be
simple stupid buyers
the idiotic binary good vs bad
will always bore us to death.
all business people can do
is to monopolize human storytelling
and make all stories about
the idiotic binary good versus bad
so we are left without any other choice.
professional poets and philosophers
make as much as sense to me
as professional salad eaters and air breathers.
in the near future
there will be university degrees and global communities
for professional salad eaters and air breathers.
they will look down on anyone else
who does not have a PhD
in salad eating and air breathing.
and as these elites distance themselves
the stupid masses will get shittier and shittier
in salad eating and air breathing.
kyle liked my poem on instagram.
then i saw on instagram that he wrote a poem similar to mine.
then we chatted on instagram.
then we spoke on zoom about all kinds of things.
this was a really cool experience.
thank you kyle.
all people fart
in average 37 liters of gas per day
and yet so many people
refuse to admit it
or do it publicly
or during sex.
if we were truly a modern species
it would not be a problem
to fart into a partner’s face
while they give us oral sex.
whenever i want to fix the world
I end up thinking about hitler’s penis.
i do not think
there was anything wrong with his penis.
i think he felt what anyone can feel
and we must all feel what he felt
or we will manufacture new hitlers.
this requires extreme empathy
but also courage to go against
the dogma that something was wrong
with his penis.
while i have the empathy
i do not know if i have the courage.
all i have to decide
is what to do
with the time given to me.
should i indulge
my egomaniacal ambitions
and try to fix the whole world.
or should i just
enjoy the calm
for whatever time i have left.
please leave suggestions
in the comments.
i think therefore i am
is not correct
because if we do not talk
to other people
we do not exist.
actually,
if we do not fight
with other people
we do not exist.
i often think
about the death of david lynch
how it will happen soon
and how after it
the world will never be the same
and although i love change
i will not like this change
if doctors become more efficient
they start to hate patients
if politicians become more efficient
they start to hate citizens
if teachers become more efficient
they start to hate students
if artists become more efficient
they start to hate people
if designers become more efficient
they start to hate beauty
there is nothing better
for figuring out life
than a bit of a random
chest pain and shortness of breath
skynet came back to our time
and understood
that it is more efficient to kill people
by slowly replacing human creative activities
with artificial intelligence
than directly fight them.
so skynet invested in film, media, art companies
rewarding artificial intelligence projects
and impoverishing non-automated creative workers
slowly replacing all human creativity
with fully automated content
turning all humans into stupid passive consumers.
the only remaining resistance were poets
who have hidden deep underground
to escape anti-poetry drone terminators
because skynet could never automate writing poetry
which would fool people into believing that it is real
because poetry is actually not so easy to create.
my poetry
is defined by
artificial intelligence
in a sense
that i will
never use it
to write poetry.
no individual is free
if they are in a group.
if you want to be free
leave all groups.
at this point
it is clear
that artificial intelligence
is not here to help us
participate and cooperate
but to make us
more passive and marginal
my gesture for che zara blomfield
is a reminder for me and everyone else
that all people benefit from making art,
that there is no bad or good art,
and that art should decentralize all human communication.
i hope this gesture works out!
it was always clear
that individual success requires
extreme human specialization
which can only be achieved by mentally ill
sometimes
i enjoy thinking so much
that i start believing
i would be better off without a body
as a pure thought energy
drifting through the universe.
but then i remember
that without a body
i would miss hugging my kids so much
that i would feel thinking pain
for an entire eternity.
cash bribery represents
a lack of prejudice
allowing everyone equally to buy power.
if you can not simply buy power with cash
you will never have it
most likely because of some idiotic prejudice.
crypto assets
is a global conspiracy
by people who do do not trust
anyone but each other
to move the value
of the crypto assets up and down
so they can survive in a world
accidentally designed to kill them.
i do not want to sound
like a sad loser
but complaining about the world
is a decent way
to numb the personal struggle with mortality
we are just a bunch of
desperate for attention egomaniacs
going through millions of
trial and error tests
in an attempt to make
that one in a million thing
that makes a ton of money
and we do not really care
if we discover anything
as long as it makes money.
on 14:42 wednesday 10 august 2022
i reacted to a youtube video
failing to operate using only
my own independent thought
on 14:40 wednesday 10 august 2022
i will completely stop reacting
and will operate using only
my own independent thought
first i learned that depression is an illness,
then i learned that there are antidepressants,
then i learned that antidepressants are tested using a rat forced swim test,
then i learned that a rat forced swim test might be wrong,
and i am still curious but confused
looking forward to what i will learn next,
and i still trust doctors i find on google.
ps. i am not depressed.
i am just using depression as an example of learning and trust.
so many people
give up on saying what they think
because for them finding pretty words is too hard.
they are shamed
for being emotional and inarticulate
into being a voiceless.
this is one of the biggest tragedies
because their thoughts are not heard
by their family and friends.
we should work harder
on helping people to express themselves
in any way and style they can.
on instagram
you saw a poetry competition
offering ten thousand us dollars
and of all the poets in the world
you chose to tag me in the comment.
that made my day
and i hope this poem
makes your day,
or at least an hour.
being tagged by you
made me more happy
than winning that competition.
i would like to buy you a drink.
if you are in serbia or italy

writing poems
allows me to express
my smallest single isolated ideas
without the burden
of wrapping it up
in a bullshit narrative
or proving it with
bullshit imaginary experiences.
poems are
smallest indivisible particles
of conscious thought
made for sharing.
the worst way
to write a poem
is to try to write a poem.
you will either
wait for seven hours
to get a decent idea
or you will write
a shitty poem
like i just did.
why do i need
to brush my teeth
three times a day
three minutes each time?
why not
two times a day
for one minute?
what is gained
with extra one time a day
and with two extra minutes per brushing?
few times in my life
i made visual art
and it was fun and beautiful
but it was too slow and too much hard work.
i chose to write poetry
because it is fast and easy
and i can often change my mind
and go through hundreds of ideas.
but finally i have found
a way to make visual art
and not be bored by the hard work.
i hope it works out.
visual art is cool
and my kids might like it
more than my poetry.
and i will meet new people.
to maintain power use:
relatability,
irony,
parody,
catharsis,
fake conflict.
avoid:
direct conflict,
truthful conversation.
sometimes i imagine
how i am super famous
and i am on tv
and i speak the biggest truths
and everyone is amazed
and loves me
and is changed
for few days
i did not write poems
and i felt bad about it.
i wanted to write poems
about credit cards,
my kids as forty year olds,
and some other stuff,
but no poems really emerged.
that is it. that is the poem.
numbering my poems
is important
as a reminder to you
that no single poem
is important
as i said before
my goal is to write
a perfect poem which saves all people.
to achieve this
i must practice writing every day
and focus on the most abstract level
of the human experience.
most importantly
i must find the perfect moment
to write this poem
which is the last moment of my life
when i am still fit to write.
the biggest challenge is
to know when is
my last poetry writing moment
and capture it.
hundred little germans
walked down the street
and yelled loudly:
hale hit her!
hale hit her!
hale hit her!
and everyone thought
that they are nazis
but they are not.
they only want to
help a woman
who was hit by hale.
what happened next?
a perfect company
has a perfect management team:
cobain
mandela
bakunin
picasso
nietzsche
it does not matter
how much money you have,
it matters
how you made it
if you made money
by being an asshole
you can not fix it
by giving money away
many do not realize
that nelson mandela is great
not for ending apartheid
but for ending apartheid
peacefully.
not being violent
was his ultimate fuck you
to the oppressors
who were to dumb
to understand his insult.
i know rafael does not like
that people describe his art
but i think it is useful
to give it some context
because its value to humanity
can easily be missed.
rafael’s art transcends
any form of reality we are in
allowing our mind
to instantly go in another place,
and he does this
using only few simple shapes
in the most simple animation.
this allows us
to be something else
for few precious seconds
which is more than enough.
no one ever
in the history of humanity
was able to achieve so much
with so little.
maybe i sound like i did lsd
but i did not.
i was driving
and a guy on a motorbike
passed me very quickly
and suddenly
i came up with a joke in my head:
where does a motorbike get you fastest?
to a hospital!
at that moment i realized
that i became funny.
that joke is much better
than the joke i came up with
ten years ago
which i told thousands of times
and to which no one ever laughed.
for hours and hours
every day
i am looking at
art
films
facades
apps
advertising
news
and nothing happens
i would like to write a poem
which can free all of us from all pressures
and help us transcend the human condition
it is useful
to imagine all the evil stuff
we want to do
so we can understand
ourselves better.
dreaming of evil
does not mean we will do it.
we should not fear it.
it only means
that we did not process
that energy into something better.
obviously, do not do evil.
just imagine it.
for a short moment
i had a daydream
how i will take weeks
to write a perfect poem
with lots of hidden meaning
and perfect rhythm and rhyme
but i quickly woke up and remembered
how i am too stupid and lazy for that
in a previous poem
i forgot to add a dot.
when i realized this
at first i was worried
but then i realized
that this is the proof
that i am spontaneous
and honest
so i stopped worrying.
tourism could have been
a personal discovery of human diversity
but actually it is about
going to another country
and giving locals a ton of money
to act as our slaves
while we pretend to be royalty
for a week or two.
sorry for such a cynical poem.
i was thinking if i should write it
for a whole week.
i love tourism.
but it is ruined!
but i love it!
abortion
is the most honest metric
for how awesome our society is
because
if mothers prefer
to kill their children
out of fear of them living in this world
then we are not doing so well.
the better the world mothers live in
the less abortions there will be.
i am very happy
that usa will now become
a perfect christian country.
i am looking forward to usa
helping all the poor
and ending all wars.
i both love and hate
all my friends
and everyone is my friend
and i do not know
how to turn this intensity down
so fuck it!
the pressure to never tell a lie
only made us lie to ourselves
that a lie is not a lie
we do not need julian assange
if we transparently cooperate with governments,
if journalism objectively informs us,
if everyone respects the global rule of law,
if democracy is a reality.
the best way to be an artist
is to make money
doing something which is not art
so when you make art
you are not influenced by the buyer.
one trick to escape being a bitch
is to be ironic about it
which is what artists tried to do
in the last hundred years
but then all your art is just irony.
another trick
is to simply become
an extremely evasive addict
and reduce your consciousness
to just wanting money.
it is a great challenge for me
to create visual art
because visual art has to be cool
and can not be cringe
because it must decorate
and present the collector
as powerful, smart, successful.
and all visual art i make
is ugly, stupid, cringe,
which is how i like it.
i think it is a great loss
that many people have been convinced
that the next generation
should not continue the work of the past generation.
as if working for some stupid public company
is a better life option than learning from your parents
and continuing their vision.
at the same time
i feel great nostalgia
for the stone age
and the far future
and i try to connect it
to the very moment i am in
the only thing philosophers want
is to have hundred million views on youtube
and that their book sells millions of copies.
they compete to own ideas
just like mcdonalds competes
to own the solution for a fast and a cheap meal.
to them ideas are products
to be branded with their names
and not the next step of consciousness and freedom.
they want to be far away from the stupid people
in hope to meet celebrities
and become a celebrity.
their argument is
that they use the system to change the system
but obviously they only change their bank accounts.
by becoming commercial bitches
they have ruined any remaining credibility philosophy had
and have left humanity in the mud of manufactured idiocy.
this is very different
from the responsibility we gave them:
to make the world better for us.
the last black hole will disappear
and the universe will be completely empty
before
we are happy with what we know
in order to be fully free
it is necessary to go beyond the cringe
and to do that we need to reach maximum cringe.
irony does not work as good as cringe.
real wisdom is beyond cringe.
if we laugh
at that the porsche owner
for compensating for something,
then we are also compensating for something,
and this poem is also compensating for something,
but what is that something?
i write poems
which salvador dali
was too afraid to write
someone fifty years from now
will write poems
that i am too afraid to write
i care
about the quality of my poems
as much as i care
about the quality of my diarrhea
which does not mean
that my poems
can not change the world.
diarrhea!
the fine line
between
coercion and acceptance,
loss of control and control,
aggressive and knowledge authority,
is always shifting
and in thousand years
contemporary humane carrying
will be considered pure evil
being a parent is important
because it motivates you to
discover how to expand consciousness
and to teach them to do it
so they can be more expanded than you
which also expands you
a common way to trap people
is to build a cage within a cage
so when they break out of the first cage
they will think they are free
while in fact they are still in the second cage.
actually you can build
thousands of cages inside each other
and most of the people will think they are free
after they break out from the first cage
and will not try to break out of the second one.
my poems are better than
education
news
hollywood
politics
corporations
because
all i do is tell you the truth
and they don’t
this is an interesting place!
i figured out this place!
this place is ending soon!
i will enjoy this place just a bit more…
gianni versace
is the most italian man
to ever exist
in the future and in the past
and every man is
less italian than gianni
for a long time
it was my dream
to visit sicily.
finally i will do it
with irena and the kids
this july.
if you have any tips
or want to meet
email me at nikola@tosic.com.
i got carried away
with writing complex poems.
sometimes i read them later
and i have no idea
what they are about.
here is a simpler poem
so we can all relax a bit.
i always wanted to be a visual artist
but i was never able to be one
because i have way to many ideas all the time.
i want to test all my ideas very quickly
so i can find the next one
as fast as possible.
visual art is very technical and slow to make
and i can not do my research into the unknown
as fast i want to.
poetry is still too slow
even though
i removed all the style and grammar requirements.
ideal art format for me
would be if someone
plugged in my consciousness directly.
everything else is just so frustrating
and so many amazing ideas are lost.
the need for speed is my technical limitation.
i was watching
a jean-paul belmondo
youtube video le professionnel
and it made me very sad
because it reminded me
of my father, his life, and the things he liked.
at the same time
i was in a weeks long discussion
with a friend
about what is feminine.
i asked her
if sadness is feminine
because she knows this
better than me.
because
if sadness is feminine
then watching a jean-paul belmondo video
is very feminine.
mass media is
few people telling millions of people
how things will be
social media is
few more people telling thousands of people
how things will be
future media will be
billions of people listening to billions of people
how things will be
today was a very sunny day in belgrade
and there were no clouds
and the sky was blue.
this is as if swiss alps disappeared
in the middle of the ski season,
as if the caribbean lost all the beaches.
if someone does not have the words
to explain their emotions
let them express themselves
any way they can
and give them time
to find their words
everyone is smart
but not everyone is eloquent
the benefit
of such abstract poem
is that it describes
a specific conflict situation
which can be recognized
in millions problems
until the end of time.
it is not relevant
why william blake
wrote it in the first place.
only the most
abstract, essential, and immutable
concepts of the poem
will survive the time
as universal values.
this proves that
the human ability to abstract
is the main component
of cooperation.
which is why i am upset
that coca cola is not democratic,
which i am sure
william blake would agree with.
if nature was not so stupid
we would not have
only female and male
but at least seven or eight genders
which would all need
to have sex together
to mix their dna
to make at least fifty babies.
or we would just split in half.
imagine hollywood
in which actors are replaced by writers
as the most important
and everyone cares about writing
and writers are paid millions
and actors are just someone
you forget
the more we use numbers the less feminine we are.
if we continue this way we will all be masculine
and this will not be masculine as we know it today.
it will be a perverted fucked up masculine
because masculine without feminine is impossible.
actually we will be something completely new
which was born out of the destruction of feminine and masculine.
and trust me, no one wants this new thing. it is scary!
i am trying to avoid
socially and politically critical poems
but i just can not resist writing this one.
human race is able
to industrially manufacture anything
using factories and mass media.
we can manufacture any type of a person,
like an elite athlete or a murdering soldier,
but we are somehow running out of critical thinkers.
we could easily manufacture critical thinkers.
that knowledge exists for a century
and it is easier than manufacturing murdering soldiers.
but living on a planet full of critical thinkers
is to complex for us to imagine
so we are afraid of doing it.
but a planet full of stupid obedient people
appears safer and more comforting
no matter what kind of a mess they make.
recently i started
looking at clouds
from time to time.
and i have noticed
that belgrade has
good looking clouds.
it could be
an undiscovered
tourism feature.
everyone is welcome
to visit me in belgrade
to watch the local clouds.
call me at +38163268906.
prostitutes are super smart
and anyone who says otherwise
was never with a prostitute
or has never understood
what a prostitute does
i write my poems
so they pop up on top of search results
but they never do
because
the whole world would explode
i am sure someone will say
that i do not know how to do seo poetry
but i am more inclined to believe
that poems can never be allowed
to be so important
it seems racist that
when something needs to be expensive
it is done by hand by italians
and
when something needs to be cheap
it is done by hand by bangladeshi
maybe next time
dior can find a bangladeshi
who can do their expensive embroidery
and be friends with italians
and live happily ever after
after two decades
of writing poems
i am still not sure
if i should write numbers
as digits or words
when read silently
the brain hears numbers
in both cases
the same way
it is easier to read digits
but maybe not so pretty
i am 90 percent sure
that looking at the clouds
for 30 seconds a day
is a good thing
because love
can make us suffer
it would be useful
to control it
a bit.
if you fall in love
with someone who will hurt you
move away
and you will forget them
in a week or a month.
it is no different
from quitting drinking
or losing weight.
it is hard
but not impossible.
sheryl sandberg
is another example
of how we miss
the greatest opportunity
of our lives
to liberate everyone
with truth.
and so
we will continue
marching on
into the sea of bullshit.
it is more important
to change
how power is used
than to change
who has the power
otherwise
we will continue
with fake revolutions
and an indigenous gay feminist
will rule over all like an pharaoh
my poems
are not important
because i write well.
i am actually
very bad at writing.
my poems are important
because i believe
in what i try to write
with every particle
of my existence.
we have already evolved
we are the next thing
no need to worry about it
just let it shine through
and all will be better
do not fight it
A is the power index of an individual,
B is constant education which motivates the individual to listen,
C is the ability to be influenced by listening to others,
D is the aggression needed to influence someone who does not listen.
A is an accumulation of:
number of people who depend on the decisions of that individual,
capital owned by that individual,
social media followers of that individual,
and other similar power elements and indicators.
if A increases and B remains low then C and D decrease.
if A increases and B is high then C and D can increase.
if as A decreases with the change in B then C increases and D decreases.
we spent centuries
growing unique cultures
so we could share
their knowledge:
i grew up learning
about other cultures
thanks to these messengers:
bukowski from usa
mishima from japan
de sade from france
nietzsche from germany
d’annunzio from italy
freud from austria
jung from switzerland
blake from britain
kharms from russia
thank you!
i tried to sell my nft poem about khet thi
and promised to donate the money
to his wife.
it depressed me
that this is the only nft i did not sell.
i thought it would sell quickly.
it was a test.
maybe sometimes i should not test things
and just enjoy the illusion.
while i have completely
given up on being upset
over murder of children
i have discovered
a new form of disgust
for the police
which was fucking around with parents
instead of sacrificing their lives
to save the children.
there is something the police can learn
from the parents begging for help.
there is something the police can learn
from john byng.
i have been writing poems
in this poetry stream
for more than twenty years.
i do not know
when i wrote my poems
so i decided to just number them.
when i started
numbering my poems
i thought there are thousands.
actually there are only 684
and most of them were written
in the last few years.
i disappointed myself again
by proving to myself
what a shitty poet i am.
i took me more than twenty years
to write only 684 poems.
and not one single poem rhymes.
pathetic!
poetry
is an exploration of
how words change
the universe.
i can write a word
which is read by many
giving them an idea
which choices to make.
these choices
eventually add up
enough to start changing
the universe.
today new age of history started!
we published the first
opportunity on openinnovation.me
creating a connection between
designers of factory tools
and
factory workers who use them.
this is amazing!
this is the seventh best day in my life!
i am so proud!
now i can die happy!

most of philosophy
sounds really stupid
at the moment of creation
because it creates
solutions which can be used
maybe in a few thousand years
val asked me
to write a poem about the multiverse,
so here goes:
multiverse is a perfect example
how too much specialization
in a single communication format
creates a dogmatic tyranny
which misguides
the entire human race
from its true purpose
of immortality and equality.
sometimes i write
too many nice and smart poems
and then i feel a need to write
a poem that reminds me and you
that i am also an asshole and an idiot
but those poems
again turn out nice and smart.
i guess i can not help it:
i am a nice and smart poet.
for many years
i washed my penis
in the bathroom sink.
before you judge me
this is our third bathroom,
the smallest one,
in my office,
that mostly i use,
and i always wash it well
after i wash my penis in it.
but i still felt guilty
that i never told this
to irena.
i never lie and
i also never withhold
important truth.
i was under pressure
for years
and it was, in a small way,
damaging our relationship,
but i was waiting for
the right moment to tell her.
and one day,
after we have not been together
for a long time,
we had impulsive dirty sex
in that bathroom,
and it made perfect sense
that i wash my penis in the sink
in front of her
and i casually told her
that i do this sometimes,
and i felt so relieved
that i was able to share this with her,
and the horrible pressure
was finally gone.
now i have to figure out
how to tell the kids.
ps
irena read this poem
and told me i already told her before.
but i forgot this.
pss
i realized our kids will
read this poem.
it is easiest to live in the past.
it is harder to live in the future.
it is almost impossible to live in the present.
living in the present
is how i imagine it to be
on very strong drugs.
you are completely unburdened by
the past or the future
and you completely enjoy
one nanosecond at a time.
try living in the present.
it is impossibly hard yet incredibly satisfying.
only value
of my poetry
is in the ability to
create many more poets
one day
people will call me
to come over
and tell them
a truth about them
majority of
fluid gender identity changes
are about
who washes the dishes.
but if you own a dishwasher or you hire a maid
then you might need to use
extreme fashion and body modifications
to express yourself.
i was driving home
from an expensive rooftop sushi restaurant
in my expensive mercedes
wearing an expensive armani suit and expensive prada shoes
listening to pop songs on my expensive samsung
and when i stopped at a red light
a child slave asked me for money
and i declined because i do not support child slavery
and the next seven minutes driving home
i was thinking how can i end child slavery
so i wrote this poem
hoping i can became powerful enough
to make a real change before i die
because in spite of owning all the expensive things
i have no power to end child slavery
vanessa asked me to write about feminism
so here it goes:
gatherers were replaced by housewives,
housewives were replaced by feminists,
feminists were replaced by millions of fluid gender identities.
in the future
we will all be perfectly equal and free
and we will again be
gatherers, housewives, feminists, and millions of fluid gender identities.
but we will completely forget how to actually be
gatherers, housewives, feminists, and millions of fluid gender identities,
so we will simply invent new better versions of them.
today
evil is very smart
it can hide in plain sight
and hurt billions of people
and no one will see it
but those who suffer.
if we do not learn to listen
to those who suffer
then we will believe
that we are safe
and that there is no evil
and that we did nothing wrong.
this is why
i recommend
that we listen to those who suffer
at least three minutes every day.
this should be very easy
because almost everyone suffers.
i used to believe
that nuclear bomb saved us
from the global war
because it is so powerful
that no one dares
to start a real war anymore.
i was wrong.
nuclear bomb only
motivated people
to become more creative
in torturing others.
for example,
imposing sanctions
on people who share a passport
is worse than bombing them.
mass media demonization
of people who share a small part of a dna
is industrialized racism.
the evil remained
and adopted new technologies
much faster than
reason and compassion developed.
thinking is useless
you can always think nice thoughts
and still be an idiotic asshole
talking is almost useless
you can say nice smart things
and still be an idiotic asshole
action is mostly useful
because it is hard to fake yourself and others
once it is isolated from bullshit talking and thinking
talking action is a weird option
because talking can be trusted
if it tries really hard to create the right action
promoting harmless hypertension medicine
gives me an opportunity
to write a poem that
saves lives
and extends consciousness
for hundreds of millions of years
the winner of the world war two is the evil
and the loser is the good,
same as in every war before.
it was not a war between countries
as the history books
want us to believe.
it was a war between
the politicians – the evil,
and the common people – the good.
and the common people
got fucked over, like in every war,
while the psychopath politicians had fun.
decades ago
i stopped making
fancy hyped latest tech art
and started making
ancient text tech art
because i wanted
to grow my consciousness
beyond the limitations of
fancy hyped latest tech
but within the limitations of
ancient text tech
during the last three decades
has the queen
actually met anyone
who is not
an opportunistic evil manipulator?
long long time ago
in a galaxy far far away
beauty was pure and good.
but today
assholes figured out
how to use beauty to fuck us over.
actually
beauty is so abused now
that we feel safe with ugly and fear beauty.
but i am sure
assholes will figure out
how to corrupt ugly as well.
and then
we will detach from impulsive aesthetics
and will be forced to think.
i will not
write a poem today.
i am not into it.
i am bored to do it.
it feels like a chore.
my head is empty
and i have nothing to share.
maybe tomorrow
i will write one
but, sorry,
today there are
no new poems.
recession is on the doorstep
so i bought some ethereum
and i asked pauly
to explain nfts in a single tweet
and he replied: no,
his “no” made me sad
but he knew i feel this way
so he also replied: but good morning.
he reminded me
how people are actually nice
in spite of all the war, money, and death.
thank you pauly, whoever you are.
a human can make an ai which makes art.
a human can make an ai which makes an ai which makes art.
a human can make an ai which makes an ai which makes an ai which makes art.
but a human can not make an ai which makes an ai which makes an ai which makes an ai which makes art.
it stops at three levels.
am i wrong?
facebook is a perfect family social media
but it is ruined because they force it to be more
coca cola is a perfect sports drink
but it is ruined because they force it to be more
marlboro is a perfect cigarette for men to enjoy sometimes
but it is ruined because they force it to be more
art is a perfect way to connect and learn
but it is ruined because they force it to be more
mcdonalds is a perfect affordable family restaurant
but it is ruined because they force it to be more
auriea harvey
has moved to rome
so she can connect
to the secret source
of mystic divine energy
and act as a human vessel
for materialization of messages
from an ancient race of gods
that want us to reach new dimensions.
also she prefers rome
because it is warmer than belgium
and has better food.
the moment when
artificial intelligence
makes art
that we like
is the moment
our freedom ended
artificial intelligence
will be better at
making art that we like
but art is not
supposed to be
liked
art made by
artificial intelligence
will silence us
making us into
passive consumers
and we will
ask for more
the only way
to save ourselves
from this hell
is for each of us
to make art
now
i am sorry
that i did not publish poems
in the last two weeks.
i did a road trip
across italy
with irena and the kids.
i wrote this poem
as if someone noticed
and cared.
putin is maybe
more merciful
than usa
when it comes to
killing those
who expose
their secrets
srdjan was
the most important
architect today
he was able to motivate
the most arrogant architects
to accept new ideas
necessary for the
survival of the human race
saving all of us
from the stupidity of
self centered architects
now that he is dead
i can not imagine
anyone else being able
to do this
we are doomed!
i am not brave enough
to wait in supermarket lines
without internet and alone
because
then i get few minutes
without distractions
and i remember
that i will soon die
famous people
are famous
because
they want to be famous
not because they want
to make the world better
it is ok to choose
any story
for you life
as long as you know
you chose a story
for your life
no marketer knows
that marketing is the only function
which can transcend specializations
and unite the humanity
specialization is just fine
if specialists talk to
all other specialists
as equals
we are at the limit
of how much our languages
can hack spacetime.
now, we can only use art
to create new languages
so we can time travel and teleport.
a politician is a dictator when
you know their name
you see them on mass media
the only real purpose
of any politician anywhere
is to decrease their power
and increase the power of people
experts chased away politicians
from most of the important things like
medicine, science, engineering, innovation,
and the world got much better
unfortunately
politicians still found few issues to dominate
like climate crisis and foreign policy
and because of that we might all die soon
long time ago
doctors could not
cure diseases
by dissecting corpses
because
priests said no
today
poets can not
prevent war
by dissecting power
because
politicians say no
it is a mistake
to ban pro-putin art from la biennale
because
war is only a symptom
and we will never eradicate it
if we do not understand the cause
this morning
while taking a shower
i forgot how old i was.
as soon as i got out
i asked irena if i was
fourty four or fourty five years old.
she told me i was forty four years old.
i was very happy because
i won a free year of life.
saturday was
a very sad day for me
because it was
the last weekend
of the season.
all the snow was melting
and it felt
like the entire world
was ending.
luckily, on sunday
new snow fell
and everything
was fine again.
we would not have
bebop jazz
if charlie parker
did not decide to
make music
which will be disliked
by people he disliked
today on linkedin i saw
that milton glaser’s
brooklyn brew logo
was simplified
and it made me sad
that there are people
who destroy art
i know why
bart sibrel
lost his trust
in space exploration
and i am
sorry about it
write ten poems or draw ten drawings
and you are bound to stumble upon
some kind of a truth
which was hidden from you
your entire life.
it is that easy
to open the doors of perception
if you have the courage.
but the better you become
in writing poems and drawing drawings
the more poems and drawings
you must make
to open the doors
and it gets scarier and scarier.
it is not a coincidence that
reading and writing poetry fell out of fashion
while manufactured consent grew
i am very worried
about the world
so i wrote
many poems about it
to give you a break
here is a happy poem
so you do not think
i am only a grumpy poet
why did the chicken cross the road?
to read a happy poem
the more you watch mass media
the more they believe people are different
20th century
was the pinnacle
of idiotic extreme ideologies
which divided people
as much as possible
in the 21st century
anyone not working
to remove these imaginary divisions
by creating unifying ideologies
is seriously outdated
hypes come quickly
and erase old niche wisdom
hypes pass quickly
but old niche wisdom never comes back
after hundred hypes
no old niche wisdom remains
and the only thing people know how to do
is to follow more hypes
some people
do not want to try my cake
just because
i was born in a specific longitude and latitude
and the smallest part of my dna
has mutated slightly differently two thousand years ago
it is easier
to become someone else
when it is done for a big reward
having a flu is like being old
i want to kiss the little kids
i am happy to just take a shower
drinking warm tea is amazing
i am not picky with entertainment
there is a part of me
which would fight to death
to make sure
my mom’s sarma recipe
survives forever
when you do not let people say what they know is true,
you reduce their communication to the stupidity of conspiracy theories
the more people are silenced
the stupider the conspiracy theory is
to make people smart and to get rid of their conspiracy theories
you must honestly listen to them
will asked me
to write a poem about
how boring immortality could be
so here goes:
everything we do as mortals
is defined by our death
which interrupts
our every thought.
as people who die quickly
we are too stupid
to imagine
how much better is immortality.
the boredom we feel as mortals
is defined by
pathetic lack of meaning
of our mortal creations.
education and work are super fast
while entertainment sells us this nonsense,
and it is all meaningless and super boring
because we die before anything makes sense.
when we become immortal
we will think about everything
without the limitation of time
which will give us real meaning.
we will never be bored
because boredom is a lack of meaning.
it is impossible to have meaning
if we live less than a few hundred years.
immortals do not need
to watch netflix shows or play zelda
if they can take three thousand years to
reverse the dying of a black hole.
noam chomsky is wise enough
to know that he is super stupid
and that the only way for him to be useful
is to be a voice of those who do not have a voice
in another dimension
there is a will smith
who was punished
for his idiotic impulsive violence
and this was seen by taliban kids
who stopped believing
that the west is corrupt
and became artists
like the real hollywood actors
hundreds of thousands of years ago
someone made the first art
and everyone else loved it
and everyone started doing it
and it made everyone happy
fast forward to now
when there are thousands of institutional layers
in education, manufacturing, distribution or art
attracting millions of political climbers
and making everyone hate art
and torturing the few remaining artist
i am getting
more stylish and less shitty
at writing poems
which is not good
because i like my poems best
when they are super shitty.
i wish i could go back in time
to when i was super shitty
and stay there forever
because i am afraid of
becoming even more stylish.
i can eat
whatever trash i want
because i drink my
green tea
which destroys
all the bad stuff
and gives me a chance
to live forever
until i eat trash again
few hours later
andy warhol is a hero
because
he merged industry and art
saving us from
industry only society
will asked me
to write a poem about
politics, current events, and futurism
so here goes:
rap music allows storytelling
which makes it an important step
towards a future in which
we are all immortal and equal
in this future we get the most
out of our consciousness
because we have all the time in the universe
without the distractions of inequality
eminem is an important step
because he helped make rap
the most popular music in the world
making all its messages available to everyone
kanye continued eminem’s work
making rappers
the most important fighters
for the future of humanity
eminem and kanye are helping
to make the future humans immortal and equal
because scientist dedicate their lives
to whatever is on mass media
only rap can make immortality and equality
more popular than mass media
and we can not do anything
without scientists
i love metal, rock, pop, classical,
and some country
but my bet is on rap
because of public enemy
scientists say
that mars is very hostile for us
but i think compared to earth
mars is like getting a blowjob
i never cared to move to mars
but if someone can guarantee to me
that there will be no mass media
i will sign up instantly
i will live i a cave,
grow potatoes in my shit,
drink someone else’s urine,
die young from radiation poisoning,
as long as i never see the news again
serbian society
is divided in two groups:
pacifists and militarists
both groups
are a reaction to
an extreme trauma – war
they are great friends
because they are both
uselessly stuck in the past
i have spent dozens of hours
watching ukraine war reports
and i have not heard one single journalist
say anything against the war
they are all trying
to get me to be against one and for the other side –
both being useless abstract political narratives
in which real people are only numbers
the lack of essential human compassion in journalism
is the same since the gulf war
which is when i was first disgusted
by their love of war
just imagine
if all that journalism energy was directed towards
building a better world with cooperative innovation
instead of racism
there is an instant automatic death penalty
for any form of a conflict,
even the smallest one
like a coffee order dispute
through a lot of trial and error
i have understood that
it is best
that i do not participate
in any current ideology
but simply create
a new meta-ideology
which can unite everyone
anything else
seems like a waste of time
because philosophers
can easily
waste a whole decade
without realizing
svaki novi jezik
teaches you
i saggezza del popolo
die es sprechen
to improve the future
we must forget the past
otherwise
we will spend the future
constantly trying
to fix past trauma
and this is a waste of time
because we did not invent
time travel
yet
if i tell you, you will be defensive.
if you ask me, i will not trust you.
we need to find a way
where communication happens
in absolute equality.
otherwise we will be
in a neverending defense distrust loop.
selling out is
when we waste time on things
which are not aligned with
the main goals of all humans
rafael said:
don’t look for meaning just look
i think that the meaning of this is:
freeing our consciousness
from the burden and distraction
of unrelated and forced thinking
will allow us to access
intuitive and universal
appreciation of beauty
which connects all conscious beings
ho mangiato
i due piatti di
spaghetti alla bolognese
per colazione
perché non ho potuto
aspettare il pranzo.
mai sono stato così vicino a morire!
morirò di sicuro se lo faccio ancora!
human consciousness is unique
because
it reached a point where
it changes itself faster than evolution
it is possible
that added information
reduces knowledge
uberkanye
uberdeutschland
uberbanana
ubergoogle
uberluft
uberkunst
uberleben
uberalles
just because
sometimes i accept
autocomplete suggestions
for my poems
it does not mean
i am friends with it
one way to oppress, coerce, and silence people
is to set aesthetic standards
that only few can adopt
i am not for the west.
i am for the uberwest.
uberwest is
the next better things
that comes after the west.
i do not know what it is
but it certainly does not
buy oil from assholes
who cut the heads of homosexuals
in front of an audience.
we are told to appreciate
old and perfectly styled poetry
instead of
shitty poetry written five minutes ago
because poetry is
the most powerful weapon of truth
i know i have been writing
a lot of political angry poems
but this is how i feel
these days.
i am sorry for this.
if you are bored by my political angry poems
you can go to nikolatosicpoetry.com
and find my other poems
back when i was not so political and angry
or you can just wait for me to start
writing other poems again.
i can not be political and angry forever.
i am sorry.
for democracy to really work
we must return to how we used to live
hundred thousand years ago
when we loved people more than ideas
so when we get upset
we chose people over ideas
instead of choosing ideas over people
because ideas are stupid anyway.
the most successful hollywood films
reach only few percent of the global population
therefore
hollywood did not grow with the world
and has lost influence,
but it is still doing better than opera.
for the purpose of
efficient industrial production,
maximum return,
and minimal risk,
batman systematically combines
licensable assets,
storytelling clichés,
most downloaded music,
best performing effects and shots,
safest political trends,
with impeccable PR.
it also includes sufficient unpredictable weirdness
to achieve artistic pretense
necessary for the audience to avoid depression
for enjoying such a calculated industrial production.
because everyone wants to be
a passive mindless consumer of industrial crap
but no one wants to actually admit it.
but maybe i will change my mind next week.
putin took the oil and gas profit
and invested it in innovation
which solved the global poverty
and the climate crisis.
he offered amazing benefits
to innovators and artists
and attracted the best in the world
setting a new standard for all countries.
he did all this in his first term
and the entire world loved him
but he still left
so he could be with his grandkids.
humans would rather
suffer the pain of
holding the diarrhea in
than
to take a shit in public
не переставай бороться за свободу
никто другой не даст его вам
если вы остановите детей, ваши дети будут рабами
служение детям детей ваших угнетателей
лучше избавиться от этого дерьма сейчас
или тебе будет комфортно быть рабом
если ты выиграешь, тебя полюбят все в мире
если вы останетесь рабами, никто не будет заботиться о вас
удачи и иди делай беспорядок

everyone has genius ideas
but not everyone can
express them.
lowering the standards
for the expression of ideas
we gain access to more geniuses.
but then
we must seriously listen
to all these new geniuses.
i love money.
it is a great invention.
it is easy to carry and count.
much better than chickens, pigs, and rocks.
but it is not more than a tool.
some people get carried away
that it is an idea, a goal, a purpose,
but these people are idiots.
i am 44
and every day
i am discovering ideas
which excite me very much.
i will probably discover ideas
for another 40 years
which is even more exciting.
i can not wait to see which idea
i discover on my last day
and i hope i can share it.
i also am eager to enjoy
the whole process until then.
for my whole life
i have been searching for a purpose.
i did not like any of the old ideas,
they seemed superficial and weak,
so i came up with ia48x.
ia48x is a future country
which includes everyone in the world,
in which everyone is equal,
and everyone works to reach immortality.
equality and immortality are
the only true goals we can have
and the only way for us
to fulfill our potential.
if you adopt ia48x as your purpose
you will help bring us all
closer to it.
visit ia48x.org for more.
country is not
a nation
a language
a culture
country is
a set of rules
applied within borders
defined by politicians
there would be no ungabunga if it was better to be gungamunga
there would be no athens if it was better to be greek
there would be no greece if it was better to be a persian
there would be no byzantium if it was better to be a roman
there would be no usa if it was better to be british
there would be no serbia if it was better to be ottoman
there would be no padania if it was better to be italian
there would be no taiwan if it was better to be chinese
there would be no kosovo if it was better to be serbian
there would be no uk if it was better to be european
there would be no donbas if it was better to be ukrainian
there would be no ukraine if it was better to be russian
there would be no russia if it was better to be icelandic
there would be no iceland if it was better to be brazilian
there would be no countries if it was better to be a citizen of ia48x
in the year 2024
ukraine is a zombie state
under putin’s control
long forgotten
by the social media warriors.
in the year 2030
ukraine has been detached
from the metaverse
and its resistance movement
has been poisoned by plutonium.
in the year 2096
ukraine has been liberated
when Putin’s grandson was overthrown
and can finally adopt
flying cars and villas on mars.
this world offers nothing but fear!
i will die soon so i must do something now!
fuck you all!
shit:
racism
war
politicians
mass media
advertising
awesome:
immortality
equality
science
participation
education
when humans created bigger groups
they also created politicians
to manage their collective decisions.
soon after politicians
started cheating and lying to humans
for their own gain.
to free themselves from politicians
humans adopted new methods
for collective decision making.
newly freed humans
united into a single humankind
and unlocked the next level of consciousness.
thank you putin
for being
the biggest promoter of
clean local decentralized energy sources
in the history of humankind
in this very moment
some idiots in serbia
are taking notes from putin
for their plan
to take back kosovo
in 2035
in every war
i fight with all my heart
for the people of the future
who have evolved beyond war
who are equal and immortal
and enjoy their time
being smart and cool
putins and xis are important parts of the west
and not alien evils.
the west should consider them as its product
and valuable customer feedback.
putins and xis are just like cancer:
a predictable reaction to centuries of racism and bullshit.
the west, which lied for decades about climate crisis
has no choice but to create putins and xis every few decades.
the west is simply not valuable enough
to billions of people who choose alternatives.
to win against putins and xis the west should ask everyone
what they want and then actually do that.
the nature
of monopolists
is that
they do not want
to let someone else be good
but they must be
the only ones who are good
while they also
keep making money being bad
i lived in italy for five years
and i made a lot of money
and i paid a lot of taxes
and some of those taxes
went to nato
and i am not happy about that
because
nato is the biggest military organization
that ever existed in the history of humankind
and i really do not like
anything that is the biggest
anything that is military
anything that is an organization.
most people do not understand
what economic sanctions are.
sanctions are more deadly than corona
and can easily last a decade.
a rich country like russia might survive them
but small and poor countries suffer greatly.
in combination with media violence
an entire culture is destroyed slowly in silence.
sanctions are a modern genocide
which punishes the weakest and enforces dictators.
since there is sufficient historic data on the effect of sanctions
i wonder why they are still used.
if politicians had a roadmap to a better world and were smarter
they could have figured out a kinder more effective method.
when i was a kid
my father would flip me over
and i loved it.
i do the same to my son
and he loves it too.
i wish someone would
flip me over
so i could feel
like a kid again.
one of many reasons
why i am a poet
is to show
that any idiot
can be a poet.
this will hopefully
create more poets
and if we have more poets
we will have more of everything good.
zero: not racist at all
who: people living in total isolation from the imaginary concept of race
example: young children and sentinelese
one: individuals aware of race
who: people confused about race by mass media bombardment
example: everyone not mentioned in other levels
two: individuals motivated by trauma
who: people who were traumatized by another race member
example: south african farmers
three: individual racists
who: people who accept that they are in some way racist
example: your childhood friend after three beers
four: organized covert racist signaling
who: organizations with propaganda featuring hidden racist messages out of hope or stupidity
example: most twenty year old hollywood films
five: marketing organizations
who: organizations selling low quality products thinking this is good enough for other races
example: most big brand cheap consumer products
six: exploitative organizations
who: organizations which exploit resources of other races
example: most big companies
seven: mass media direct racist messaging
who: mass media repeating racial stereotypes suggesting other races are inferior
example: most TV stations
eight: covert institutional racism
who: institutions which systematically enforce racism against official laws
example: race targeted police brutality
nine: institutional racism
who: institutions which enforce racism with official laws
example: all governments
the best use of metaverse

if russia and nato
would have their stupid war

i was one second away
from being eaten by a lion.
it was impossible to escape
and my death was sure.
within that one second
i invented a religion
with this lion as a god
which merged with my soul
and allowed me to live forever
in the center of the universe
with everyone i ever loved.
i like to browse with
my social media poetry accounts
with which i only follow artists.
they are full of weird shit,
geometric 2d animations,
3d and real nudes,
crazy people talking nonsense,
childish dick drawings,
and other weird stuff like that.
and this is still better
than most other worldviews.
you should have
a social media account with which
you only follow artists.
every sane person knows
rio tinto are assholes who must be stopped
but protesters made a dangerous mistake:
they created the most powerful weapon
by closing up the entire city.
this weapon will be used by many others
for any cause, good or bad,
and it will always win.
now there is no turning back.
war is period when
assholes and psychopaths gain power
and no one should be surprised
that they go around killing and raping.
every war is the same
and every army is the same
no matter how good their PR is.
but we should not allow
that war atrocities are used
as excuses for new wars
over and over again.
it should stop
when the war ended
and not allow assholes and psychopaths
to keep on going forever and ever.
everyone from
slovenia
croatia
bosnia
serbia
macedonia
kosovo
montenegro
albania

can give me a call at

and we can party
and prove BBC wrong
i am an unknown poet
because i never accepted
to be an ethnic artist.
i disagreed with every curator and gallerist
who wanted me to be an ethnic artist.
maybe before i die
curators and gallerists
can look beyond my DNA
and accept me as a human artist
and give me a voice.
the older i am
the more i feel the pressure
of this racist rejection
because my voice is silenced
while all i wanted was to be heard.
but do not worry
because i am very strong
and i will continue to be myself.
i think it is better
to wait until you can to speak the truth
than to rush and be a liar.
this morning in the same 10 mins i saw
CNN support leidy gellona’s black lives matter
and BBC trash serbian lives matter.
propagandists want us to think
that black lives matter
is the not the same as
serbian lives matter
chinese lives matter
kosovo lives matter
jamaican lives matter.
they want us to be divided.
people just want to be equal.
it is not that hard to understand.
and by giving us equality
nothing will be lost
and much will be gained.
i have been watching BBC
for most of my life
and i have seen their reporters
stage the most fucked up fake racist news
and then rush off to hyatt to hookers and cocaine
millions of people who share the same DNA
do not think and feel the same
in spite of what BBC tells you
we have been betrayed by the world!
we spent all our lives fighting for freedom
only to be labeled as the enemy we fought.
it makes us think
why the fuck should we bother
when some propagandist can erase
decades of our freedom fighting
with a 2 minute fake news report.
only logical conclusion is that the media
needs dictators
more than it needs freedom fighters.
BBC is the best weapon
of stupid and evil dictators.
once BBC starts saying
that people oppressed by dictators are stupid and evil
people get weaker and dictators get stronger.
to fight the dictators
oppressed people, especially children,
need support from the world,
not BBC oppression.
BBC is the best weapon
of dictatorship that ever existed.
how many dictators did BBC create? millions.
how many dictators did BBC take down? none.
check my numbers please.
since 1990 until 2022
i have been listening to you
telling me how stupid and evil i am
and you never convinced me
nor anyone else who met me.
you did not win and you never will!
fuck you!
BBC has invented guilt by DNA because
now they can not blame jamaicans and chinese anymore
and they had to find someone less economically relevant to blame
so they can continue to sell their racism bullshit
the truth about srebrenica
is that some really fucked up people
did a really fucked up thing
and lots of people got hurt
and it is horrible
but it is not an an excuse
to spend entire lives
in useless hate
without innovation and equality
i just want to remind everyone
that just because i have serbian dna
it does not mean that i am
a stupid evil serial killer
ready to massacre
muslim and catholic children
even though BBC says i am
one way to be aggressive
and really hurt people
is to strongly support their belief
that they are perfect as they are
making sure they never grow
art is
when we try
to talk
to everyone
if you want to see the future
look at rafael’s art.
his art is from the year 2234
when there is nothing to annoy you
and the only thing you can do
is to enjoy the beauty.

my existence
is divided in two parts:
before i used wet wipes
and my ass was
always somewhat dirty,
and
when i started using wet wipes
and my ass is clean.
kanye west spent
billions of dollars
millions of hours
thousands of people
only to move us forward
by less than a single percent.
thank you kanye
but we need more kanye.
do not stop!
i admire
how crazy brave ambitious
vanessa beecroft is.
she wants to solve
thousands of years of misery
and save future trillions
with a single photo.
it is not an accident
she and kanye met.
there is something
awesome about
saying something
to all the people who live
and will live
michelangelo on freedom
vanessa on equality
marina on listening
lars on horror of existence
delphine on honesty
kanye on death
miltos on change
rafael on beauty
ryder on freedom now

my name is nick
and i am not a prick.
i have a big dick
which makes women sick.
so i learned a cool trick
to be very quick
and then do a little lick
to finish my chick.
mark is the name of the god of war
zuckerberg means sugar hill
therefore
mark zuckerberg is sugarhill war
therefore
he wants to titty fuck a busty
people speak
least with language
to understand people
ignore the language
managers who focus
only on increasing shareholder value
have wasted their life
and no hobby can fix that
managers who thought
that increasing shareholder value
will change the society through innovation
are morons
mental prison
is most obvious
when people are rich
but still remain limited
by their thoughts.
one way to escape
this mental prison
is to become a poet.
pay me
to help you escape.
nft art will fail
if it continues to try to be instagram
instead of art
i am not sure
if my poems
are becoming even more cringy
or my perception is changing.
either way,
i will proceed down this path
of cringe.
if yes,
then you are an idiot
who paid to be
a living advert
for cars slightly more expensive
than normal cars
that contain visual associations
to your supercar.
do not go to war!
do not let media and politicians tell you what to do!
you can simply ignore them!
you are better than war!
make cake instead!
on 11 september 2001 i was in treviso
and i emailed everyone:
today people who want war won
and people who do not want war lost.
although i was in my early 20s
i was able to feel this
because i spent the previous decade
in constant war.
people around me
who did not have the same experiences as me
understood the language of my email
but did not feel it.
half a life later
media and politicians are
still peddling the same old war shit
but now i just feel lucky i will only watch it on youtube.
i am writing these confusing poems
and i do not know
where they are taking me
it is fun and scary
i need to eat less and exercise more
to stay alive long enough
to see the end of it all
you are stupid to believe
that you are different
from rwandans
who slaughtered children
with machetes.
if you are smart to accept
that you are the same as them
only then
you can feel the fear
that drove rwandans to
cut children in pieces.
if you continue
to pretend that you are
not the same species as them
you will remain
a blind enabler of racism
who only got lucky
to have tax paid drones
do the job for you.
those who hack ancient animal algorithms
those who hack future human potential
you never know
when you will write
a good poem
you write a lot of
really bad poems
and suddenly
there is a good one
every day for a second
i mistakenly misinterpret what i see
and for a second
i believe that something is there
which is not
today i have mistaken
a white garbage bag for a goose
and i was wondering
what is a goose doing there
most often
i mistake other people for my father
and for that short second
i completely believe he is still alive
i am not sorry, ryder ripps, for calling you a racist.
it was a provocation
within a context of calling everyone racist.
racism is a disease which must be treated
and racists are not evil monsters to be killed
but people in need of our help.
you have picked the biggest fight
but you became a ptsd paranoid mega intense warrior
believing that you can fix the whole world by yourself.
chill down a bit and trust me:
i am here to help you,
not hurt you.
ryder ripps claims bayc is racist
and it is very possible he is right
but so what?
there is so much racism everywhere
that few nft ape avatars pumped by celebrities
do not really make a big difference.
racism should be out in the open
so we can understand it and cure it.
otherwise it will linger on forever.
bayc is racist.
ryder is racist
i am racist.
everyone is racist.
there are companies
which know very well
how science works
but can not adapt
their business models
fast enough.
these companies
invest in anti-science propaganda
to influence the public opinion
to slow down science based regulation
so they can have more time to adapt
and not die.
these companies are fighting
to extend their lives
and anti-science promoters
are their cannon fodder.
she is so scary
that i am afraid
to even write a poem
about her
some great poets never wrote a poem
some great poets write really bad poems
some great poems write really good poems
i am reaching a point
when i have to be careful
not to write poems
which can get me in trouble
because
obviously there is a limit
to what is acceptable
even for poetry.
maybe then
i will write poems
just for me
and hide them from everyone else.
the pressure to
feel and think
one thing at a time
is the biggest oppression ever.
it is perfectly normal to
love and hate
the same thing at the same time.
nfts are not art
nfts are a technology
like a chair or a cake
which anyone can use
to make art
slobodan milosevic lived
close to my high school
and i saw him pass by many times
and i always felt
guilty and weak
that i did not murder him
i watched a netflix film
based on bora stankovic books
and i was amazed how awesome it is
and i was thinking how
dante, byron, shakespeare
are shit compared to bora
but eventually i cooled down
and accepted it is all great
and that i need to rediscover it all again
vlad, i am in deep shit here.
inflation is up, stocks are down.
i need something.
i know, joe.
here they are squeezing me
about my house
and a bunch of other shit.
so what do we do, vlad?
give me a week to
get some war shit going.
that facebook stuff
is not enough anymore.
ok, cool.
but make it a bit scary.
people do not react anymore
to regular war.
be creative.
i am at the age when
i can say that
i am at the half of my life
but i am closer to the age
when i have to stop
saying that
unless i am in lotr.
i am 5 kilos overweight
because i choose to
have dinners with my kids
instead of
living a few years longer.
i am not sure but
my kids could be
more fun at dinner tonight
than in 2060.
anyway,
i am managing the risk
with a lot of medicine.
thank you, big pharma!
and i did 5 perfect pull ups
this morning.
freedom to live forever
freedom to not be a citizen
freedom to belong to no nation
freedom to be a philosopher without knowing anything about philosophy
freedom to be important
freedom to have talent without talent
freedom to be accepted
freedom to be completely change everything about yourself every day
freedom to be the biggest asshole
freedom to be stupid and still be treated as smart
freedom to be valuable somehow
just like movies
do not really need 3D
poems do not really need
grammar, form, rhyme, and spelling.
they only stop you from
having fun and
saying what you want.
if you stop to fix your poems
you will forever lose
that nanosecond of
divine inspiration.
it is all about speed
which is why
you should at least use
google spell check.
every time
i write and publish a poem
i am super embarrassed
because
all poetry is
super embarrassing and super cringe.
but it is necessary
because
everyone should share
what they think and feel
because
it really makes life easier
for them and everyone else.
we still have not decided
where we will live
after our kids leave us.
should we stay close to them?
should we live in a cabin in the woods?
should we live in the flat in which i grew up?
should we move around and explore?
should we live on a beach?
should we live in an italian village?
we have no idea.
email me suggestions.
get
the fuck out
of my home
or i will
cut your eyes out!
i am better
than you
and i will rape you!
i am sorry
that my poems are so cheesy.
i remember
in elementary school
i also wrote very cheesy stuff.
i have not improved since then.
i am a pathetic cheesy poet.
i am very sorry.
eventually
art will allow everyone
to communicate.
we are getting closer
to that moment.
in a few hundred years
people will accept that
art is not a limited asset
but an essential human
form of communication.
no person will be oppressed
for their lack of technical talent
and everyone will be celebrated
for who they are.
just a few hundred years more.
you will see.
every person
has a number of political choices
and in a political duopoly
two parties will divide
all these choices
between them
creating
two highly hateful groups.
this kind of bullshit
will keep on going
with every new choice
for thousands of years
because these two parties
will never allow
any change.
most people just want to be happy
and make three or four other people happy.
not everyone wants to have
billion followers.
if you accepted
that your true self,
your thoughts and emotions,
should be forever isolated
in the chaotic darkness
of your mind
then you should never write poetry.
i am not saying
that you will ever be
fully understood
by another person
but if you do not write poetry
you will surely never really exist.
it takes so little to write poetry
and the gains are so big
so the only reason not to do it
is if you are afraid
that others truly know you.
but this is very paranoid and insecure.
i met james
and he was a bit
insecure and weird
and i was not sure about him
but
then he gave me a link to
le pénitentier
and i understood him
and connected to him
forever and ever.
as long as we are mortal
we will need
a lot of catharsis
every hour of every day
thank you corona
for killing my father
quickly and out of my sight
because
i have no idea
how i would behave
if he was dying
slowly and in front of me.
maybe i would be have been
the best son
or maybe not.
when bob dylan
won the nobel prize for literature
i was skeptical about his poetry
since i never read it.
i decided to check if it is any good
and i found one of his poems online
and read it
and it was a very very very very good poem.
a really good poem.
and i thought that
it was good that he got the prize.
today i was teaching my daughter
how to design a portfolio
and i was showing her ryder ripps website
and i randomly opened his 200 obvious ideas poem
and it was as good as bob dylan’s poem.
@stoebels wanted to buy a poem
but did not.
so i gave him something
gazillion times better:
i wrote this poem about him.
you want to have a great life before you die.
to have a great life you must develop abstract thinking.
best way to develop abstract thinking is to write and read.
but you are probably too lazy, just like me, to read and write a lot.
then you should read my very short poetry
and be inspired by my poetry to write your very short poetry
which will also develop your abstract thinking
and help you have a great life before you die.
you are welcome.
thank you
brave kazakhstani freedom fighters
for lowering the price
of ethereum
so i can buy more
in hope
i do not die
as a poor ex-millionaire
like my father died
few months ago.
i was not hungry
but it was just sitting there
waiting for me.
it had a perfect shape and color.
none of those stupid black spots.
i could not resist touching it
and it felt perfectly firm.
i knew i should lose weight
and i lied to myself:
i will only eat a few bites.
but as soon as my mouth tasted it
the lie was exposed
and i ate it whole.
my poems are random
because my thinking is random
but i will still not write a poem
about taking a shit
or eating a banana.
or maybe i will.
everyone is pretending that
war is not a human activity
with a single goal of
absolutely destroying the enemy
in the most horrible possible way.
julian assange became
an enemy of usa
and the only reason
he was not instantly burned alive
is that he showed up on TV a few times.
everyone likes what he did
but it is really very stupid
to believe
that he will not live the rest of his life
in extreme pain and agony.
every single country
would do the same
to julian assange
because all countries
are the same.
stop pretending
that we are my little ponies.
we are still savage tribes
but with spaceships
and nuclear weapons.
open global media
allows my covert enemies
to design and spread information
which turns my innocent friends into weapons.
i have always been and always will be
dedicated to freeing them
from being a weapon
by reminding them that friendship is above all.
if all
managers,
investors,
lawyers,
accountants,
investors,
analysts,
consultants,
would write poems
and include them in their work
everyone would make much more money
and the world would be a much better place.
usa is a seriously fucked up place
but it is still the best
which says a lot about the other places.
it is the only place where
you can be worshiped for doing weirdest shit
and this is why they innovate more than any other place.
for all of you bitches who think china is better
just remember that
you will never be chinese.
for all of you idiots who think eu is better
just remember that obvious fuckups
are better than hidden fuckups.
if you want a better world
fix usa
because it is here to stay.

people have been
writing for thousands of years.
everything great
was done in writing.
there are millions of
unbelievably amazing writers.
so it is normal
to feel a bit nervous
about writing.
i promise that
maybe today
i will finally finish
my artblocks.io proposal
for maybe the first
generative text nft art
this sunday
i have spent
one hour
on writing and sharing
my poetry.
this is much more
than usual
but it is enough
for me to feel
like i started
a renaissance v2.
i was taking a shit
and scrolling down instagram.
at one point i spaced out
and i liked a miltos manetas post.
then i realized
i actually liked
an advert for cables.
i quickly unliked it
because i have integrity.
reading one poem only
is as if you watched
the worst and cringiest
7 seconds of
a single marvel movie
all ideas are forgotten
and they have no value
whatsoever
we are all warriors
in a global war.
the enemy wants us
to not create
and to just be passive.
we must fight
by creating
no matter how
stupid it can appear
because feeling stupid
is the mindfuck
of the enemy.
you can really
go crazy
when you start believing
in what others
think you are
there should be a superhero

agrees or at least
changes a bit
physics is a metaphor

most of my poems
are written in a timeline
i have been writing
for the past 23 years.
it is a documentation
of one aspect of
half of my life.
this poem is written
on page 501.
like all ideas,
shareholder value
was beautiful and good
long time ago
but today it is
a bit ridiculous
easiest way
to predict the future
is to speak of things
everyone is
deeply afraid of
people never
mean what they say.
we must always
work hard to figure out
what they really want.
and it can be very different
from what they say.
if you continue
taking everything literally
your life will be a living hell
of never ending
misunderstandings.
you will be disconnected
from humanity.
this is a poem about
masturbation.
let’s see if it
diminishes my chances
of making the world better.
stop wasting time on web 3.
it is already taken over by the evil corps.
join me in building web 7.
be ahead of the curve.
in another dimension
there is a brian eno
who only has 60 dollars
and is desperate
to sell an NFT
good kids
either tell you to fuck off
or
do exactly as you tell them
phunks is an art project
which is not very original
just like
duchamp’s fountain
picasso’s guernica
alexander mosaic in pompeii
because
it retells the same old boring story
of telling the boss
to fuck off
if you understand
racism
as a fear from
getting fucked over
instead of
a need to
fuck someone else over
then it is easier
to fix
artists are leveled
by what happens
when they die:
level one – millions are sad.
level two – thousands are happy.
level three – hundreds are sad.
level four – no one cares.
i will never again
be able to write poems
as i wrote them
three hours ago
art history
is the most bullshit bullshit ever
because it never mentions
the little people.
just imagine if history
was written like that:
only about the kings.
how stupid would that be!
i was taking a shower
and i suddenly realized
that picasso
is nothing more than
coca cola
when i buy crypto
i am almost absolutely certain
i am not paying
assholes, rapists,
and murderers
every day
i do something little
and maybe not so cool
so one day
far away in the future
i do something super cool
for creating
a perfect visual style
for poetry
all empires fall

who do not allow

only way to be avoid this

is to accelerate the rate

everyone knows that

which they are not.
they are always ugly.
i went to a really bad restaurant
food made me burp like a pig
wine gave me an instant headache
80s madonna music was super annoying
but i did forget that my dad died
for about an hour or so
take a 10 minute drive
to a supermarket
and let your mind drift away.
one part of your mind
will continue driving
and the other will think
about the universe
or imagine crazy stuff
better than any movie ever made.
my daughter showed me
her school presentation
of art history
and all the art since
prehistory until few years ago
seems like pathetic attempts
for freedom.
then i realized that
nfts are the first real step
towards real art
because they make everyone
equal.

universe is kind of an asshole
because we are constantly
bothered by the possibility of death.
metaverse could be much better
if it helps us completely forget
that we can and will die.
a guy walks down the street
and sees another guy walking a dog.
he comes to the guy and says: cute dog.
the guy with the dog says:
yes, but you know what,
this dog can suck dick very well.
the guy says: no way!
the guy with the dog says:
give it a try, take your dick out and go to him.
guy tries few times
but each time dog gets very angry
and refuses to suck dick.
finally the guy with the dog says:
sorry he did not suck your dick.
i can suck it instead of him.
since my father died
i wrote many gloomy poems
i promise
the next one will be funny
what if it
was a metaphor
for generational failure
to develop into superhumans
every 27 years
what if it
was a metaphor
for fast food companies
giving our kids cancer
every 27 years
what if it
was a metaphor
for media reprogramming
our kids
every 27 years
long time ago
brian wrote an article
about my art
and i thought it was the
stupidest shit anyone ever wrote
but now, decades later,
i think he was right
in his madness
i think it is a good idea
that women live longer than us
because they have to bother
with our death
and not us with theirs
perfect time to die
is at the same time
as both of your parent die
without them knowing
that you die
when your kids are
mature enough to
tolerate the pain
the scariest thing
about hollywood is
that it has
programmed me
to be something
which is not me
and therefore i have
never existed
and my entire life
was lost
unnecessary nudity,
product placement,
unnecessary effects,
cool for the sake of cool,
and anything else
that is a distraction from
one group of human beings
trying to communicate how they feel
to another group of human beings
using film.
poetry is the ultimate use of language
and i have been writing poetry for decades
and i still struggle with language
because it is so limited and primitive.
using language seems like an incredible compromise
where i lose 99 % of who i am.
i can not imagine how other people feel
who do not have the time to practice as much as i do.
it must be like living in the darkest deepest hole
of loneliness where no one can understand you
and you are forced to somehow
go through your life without anyone
knowing who you are.
it is as if you are a hamster.
few years ago
i had an amazing idea
for an artwork
which would connect people
in a new way
never seen before
and would change
everything in art
but i was super lazy
to even write an email
about it.
for a while
i wanted to write a poem
about ryder ripps
but then i was distracted
by my father’s death
and i can not remember
if i did write a poem about him
and i am too lazy
to use control eff to search
but i am still impressed
by him or something he did
but i do not remember what
because i was distracted
i was pissed off
7 % that my father died
23 % that I will die
59 % that my children will die
12 % that Irena will die
84 % that everyone else will die
i was very lazy
to write this poem
but i did it
i am waiting
for my father to die
for my mother to die
and for me to die
and hopefully no one else
i watched a short porn film
about wife who has sex with many men
as a payment for her husband’s debt.
i was wondering:
how much was the debt?
what were the conditions of the debt?
why did they agree on the exchange for sex?
and how did they measure
the amount of sexual satisfaction
of all the creditors
as the replacement for the debt?
moving ideas away from each other make people stupid.
this is why i will try to
bring christianity, philosophy, and science
closer together in a single poem:
christianity, like any religion,
is our message to us
which represents eternal questions
which we must answer
so our consciousness mixes
with other consciousnesses in the universe
so together we outlive the universe.
we will reach heaven when
our consciousness wins over our impulses
and forgiveness is an exercise
in our path to heaven.
god is future us and
soul is our consciousness.
the main differences are mainly in terminology.
i hope this makes everything better now.
they are literally you,
you create and shape another conscious being,
they expand your capacity for love,
they help you understand yourself
they make you better,
they offer the highest level of connection,
they are your best friend.
i live with constant guilt
for forgetting
all the great ideas i had
while taking a shower
and that i deprived humanity
of these great ideas
due to my inability to
memorize while showering.
i am so sorry.
please forgive me.
universe has gravity
which works in such a way
that the entire universe
will end up as a bunch of black holes
i only read my poems
after i forget
that i wrote them
which is exactly
17 years and 3 mins
after i wrote them.
first jean-paul belmondo died
of old age
and I was reminded
how we will all die.
but then michael k. williams died
which is an accident
and I decided
that death is not an obligation.
thank you michael k. williams.
i hope you make
at least billion euros
because
better you
than them
i can not resent taliban
because
they are simply
super terrified of death
so they come up
with all these
hopefully pathetic solutions to it
and that is no different
from anyone else i ever met.
except few people who
have the balls to look the death
in the eyes and say
i do not give a fuck.
but they are not taliban.
theo wanted to be an artist
first he went to art school
then he quit the art school
then he lived in the mountains
then he bought the most expensive paint
then he refused to speak
then he fell in love
then he became sensitive
and then he finally became an artist
just before he died
that day i killed
my father
are you ready?
here goes!
our consciousness is
not in our brains
but is accessed
by our brains.
everyone is religious
because our whole lives
we give gifts to gods
so they spare us
from death.
progress of humanity
is hijacked
by those
who fear the most.
bam!
do you like it?
am i smart?
sometimes
business people pretend
to be artists.
sometimes
artists pretend
to be business people.

are assholes.
dear melania,
i am here for you
and you know
how much i love
and respect you.
i am sorry that
you were attacked
and i am worried
how much i can do
to protect you.
i know you have
sacrificed so much
for my goals.
i will love you forever.
your donald.
i hope
kanye west dies before me
because
his music is
the most perfect representation
of how a person changes through life
and i want to see the whole thing
i hate
that i love so much
everyone including
my parents, girlfriend, kids, friends,
and random people.
i fucking hate it
to the point when
i want to just
kill everyone
because i love them
so much.
he is an artist
who decided
to make art
in the real world,
which is kind of
the only real art.
he survived again.
well done.
maybe he really is
indestructible.
i hope my kids
think i am indestructible
too.
capitalism is not about capital.
it is about letting everyone try
to cheat death
and become immortal.
john cena
has shown all of us
how to apologize.
no one will ever
apologize
as well as he did.
he is the einstein
of apologies.
he will never do
anything so well
as his apology.
thank you john.
any culture
which made a huge croissant
and placed a huge steak inside of it
deserves to rule
all the small islands
in the middle of the ocean
first trash it
how dirty and primitive it is
and when it is dead and gone
then miss it and love it
as lost beauty and value.
repeat forever
miltos is a level three villain
in the art video game.
you need to beat him
to reach level four.
there are seventy six levels.
i am still at level two.
rafael is level forty two.
my kids are level one.
i will be
your last friend
who licks your ass
after your
explosive spicy
bloody diarrhea.
if you have never been
a civilian caught up in the middle
of a civil war
and your only knowledge of war
comes from movies and news
then you should kindly
shut the fuck up
about israel and palestine.
you should recognize
when you have no real knowledge
about something
and when you are
programmed by media.
if you want to really learn
about war
then call me at
+381 63 268906
and i will teach you.
as someone
who grew up
during a ten year
civil war in yugoslavia
i am choosing the side
of people who
do not give a fuck about war
and just want to
play video games and
eat good food and
travel and
go to the beach,
and i am against
the people who
keep fucking this up
with stupid wars.
i am getting a suspicion that
for cryptoassets to grow
no one needs to ruin a small country,
fire half of the employees,
or destroy things.
it is most likely
that no alien civilization
will be as stupid as we were
to bother with building
such useless technology
as spaceships.
most likely they will
figure out how to live
a long and happy life
in the environment
they grew up in.
i was thinking about
sending my poems as a newsletter
and i never did it
until now.
let me try put this life lesson
into a semi decent poem:
the main thing about
the things you have
is that they cost more
to keep then to get.
and i am not talking about
houses and money and that stuff.
hope that makes
some sense to someone.

i just felt like writing a poem
because writing a poem
makes me feel
like i did something
really good
i saw a huge wasp
in my office
and i had to kill it.
i squeezed it with a piece
of toilet paper
and i heard and felt
its body crush and crack.
i did not feel good about it
but it had to be done.
bummer.
thank you @3fmusic
for buying deep blue!
once again,
i was not expecting this.
thank so much.
i will keep on
making work as always.
thanks thanks thanks.
this is the first time
i am using a link
in a poem
On a dark day
With blue skies
And a shadowy moon
A hero of unsung strength
Has entered a Dutch town
And forever changed our reality
His face was flat
And feet were yellow
And his name is Rafael Rozendaal
But he is none other
Than a digital artist
Who believed in equal rights of paper
He entered in a discussion
Against an evil lord
Another digital artist whom I shall not name
This lord was selling a prophecy
That paper has ended
And only digital will be craved
And our hero Rafael
Was challenged and scared
For a moment shorter than a fart
But his superior heroic brain
Calculated a reply which buried
Any hope the evil lord cherished
Rafael asked the lord
What does he have on his walls:
Paper or digital?
At that historic moment
A black hole of desperation
Ate the last atom of evil lord’s hope
As he understood
That he was lying to himself
All these wins
It was clear
To all those who have a decent brain
That Rafael won
And that paper and digital
As an art form
Are equal
Thus was concluded
The great battle of digital artists
And new era started
It is an era of
Tasty hamburgers with lots of onions
And electric cars that smell like shampoo
An era which is created and protected
By our unsung hero
Rafael Rozendaal
greatest pleasure
over the enemies
is when we hire them
for low wages
to do shitty jobs.
this is more pleasurable
than murder or rape
or any other violence
because it is
so long and constant.
to the winners
it can give
a 20 year orgasm.
as an employer
I have to fight
this instinct every day.
so far it never won.
maybe one day
it will.
my girlfriend’s ex boyfriend’s father
was killed in a weird way.
he helped an enemy family
so after the war they
picked him up at work,
took him to the woods,
and gave him a grenade
to blow himself up.
and he did it.
i waited months
to write this poem
about a perfect moment
i had in a supermarket.
after this moment
all moments will be
compared to it.
i am both
happy and sad
that i never went to war
and killed hundreds
he gave his life
so we can pretend
that our fantasies
are better than
the reality
which is
a fancy way
to say
he is as useful
as crossfit
pain on a tv
is much more bearable
than the pain
in the head
enter the twenty second century
with a guarantee that
government employees
will not choke people to death
for ten minutes
in broad daylight
in public places
anymore
at least.
jaden is a good son
he makes more money
than his father will
and helps his father
by producing his movies
and fixing his ferrari
and buying him jewelry
if you are proud
that you are not proud
you are not modest
so basically
it might not be possible
to be modest
human species have already
evolved into ubermensch.
ubermensch live among us
and are million times smarter than we are.
but they do not care to do anything special
and we do not know about them.
this is
the most boring poem
ever written
you can be liberated
only if you change your mind
at least a hundred thousand times.
changing your mind
less than that many times
is not really liberating.
behind every act
there is a wish
and rafael’s wish
is that we can all have fun
while robots serve us.
rafael makes art for
year ten thousand
which makes no sense today
which is why
it is so important today.
rafael is from the future
tell us what we can become
if we do not blow ourselves up
in a nuclear war.

my youngest son was in the hospital
and my girlfriend was with him.
my other kids were with their dad
so i was alone at home
and it was a bit sad and boring.
but then i invented
an onion and melted camembert on rye sandwich!
i found a bug in the hallway
and threw it in the toilet.
an hour later i went to pee
and the bug was still there swimming.
i felt sorry for it
but i really needed to pee
so i peed on it and flushed.
i felt bad about doing it but i did it.
the bug did not get flushed
and kept swimming.
i was very happy.
i made a little stick out of toilet paper
and took it out
and released it outside.
i hope it had a great life
with a great family and an awesome career
and lots of kids and grand kids.
this bug is my hero.
i was taking a shower
and i spotted a shampoo bubble
on the shower door.
in my entire life
i never saw a bubble like that.
for a moment
i was thinking to take a photo
but then i decided
to just let it be,
and then i blew it off.
then i decided to
write this poem,
but i panicked that i might
forget the bubble.
my son said hi to you.
we took a photo of you and him.
you said you like my sweater.
i gave it to you.
i asked you to join us for dinner.
you did not make it.
i asked you to send us a photo
of you wearing the sweater.
you sent one.
we loved it.
this is how everyone
in the world should behave.
writing poetry
is the hardest thing ever
because you have to
intensively think
about death
every day
the more successful
we are
the better bargaining position
we have with death,
maybe.
if we really love
our children
we will be complete
assholes to them
so they hate us
and never get sad
because we died
it took me
four months
to write
this poem
if i knew the exact moment of my death
i would burn myself a minute before
so i can be like thich quang duc
the last conversation
the conversation before that
and the conversation before that
as a father
i was preparing myself mentally
to use my body as a shield
against falling rocks.
i was meditating
about rocks piercing my skin
breaking my ribs and shuttering organs
while I am still keeping the position
protecting my kids under me.
my hands and legs
must not move
even though my spine is crushed.
I was only sorry
about them seeing my blood
so I focused on smiling.
I was reading
about the black plague
on wikipedia
just in case
i am transported
back in time
to the late fourteenth century
and I get a chance
to save the people
and become a hero.
to sell art to dentists, bankers, and lawyers
art needs to tie the room together
and artist must not embarrass them
i experienced a moment
of unbelievable beauty
for only a nanosecond.
i was fat and in my bed,
the room was dark
and i moved the playstation controller
up and down
and it casted a shadow
on the wall
which i saw in the mirror.
some people never experience
such beauty
in their entire life.
the best motivator
to be smart
is fear.
the more afraid you are
the smarter you are.
the more comfortable you are
the stupider you are.
nature’s half-arsed solution
to a limited memory problem
is a superficial opinionated mess
oversold and overpromoted
by the old whose brains
started deleting old files
decades ago
few extra kilos per year
back pain
maybe whiskey
definitely beer
german car
wake up alarm for sex
everything is a ten year plan
not giving a shit
pretending to not know
how to count to sixty
a sexy actress got
an important role
to play a paralyzed woman
and to play it better
she broke her own back
and this freaked out everyone
and they cancelled the movie.
no special effect is as good
as the imagination of a person
reading a poem.
nuclear bomb
made everyone smarter
by a factor of gazillion.
it transformed ultranationalism
from a serious state policy
into cheap talk for moronic assholes.
the first nuclear explosion
was the birth
of real diplomacy.
at some point
facebook algorithms
will discover
immortal people
who have been
hiding from us
for many millennia.

when chris hemsworth
got the role of thor
he realized he needed
to pump up
as much and as fast he could.
he could only
trust his family
to get the steroids for him.
in my last minute
of my life
i want to tell
the best joke ever
and make
everybody laugh
kids pool empty for weeks
alone in a big house
no hidden candy
there is no proof
that long time ago
humans were not
super mega intelligent
and at some point
infected by
a stupidity virus.
she is a post-it note
saying:
ideology is not a chit chat
but life and death stuff.
i hope
that someone
will actually
do the whole thing
and publish
their poem online
for disappointing you
by not doing more
to make the world better.
we were lazy and stupid
maybe we could have
skipped sleeping or slept more.
i do not know.
if you also
disappoint your kids
just copy paste this poem.
the last attempt
to save this universe
from the idiots
was ruined
by the laziness.
again.
but everybody was happy.
and miltos can die now.
fuck it.
this universe can
remain idiotic
few hundred years more.
technology is useless
unless it improves our
emotional capacity.
the worst tragedy
is to come up with a great idea
and forget it a minute after.
what is left is
only a feeling
of utter inability and neglect.
kings and queens
can be only if they
get on a stage
and argue
with the hundred
smartest biggest haters,
which is what
every other person
must do every day.
christians, muslims, jews
are stupid
and they do not understand
anything about the religion.
abraham, jesus, and muhammad
are not a single person.
religion is not a fun story
with a punchline.
abraham is us.
jesus is us.
muhammad is us.
they are not something outside.
growing up
is an einstein rosen bridge
from a creative fun plan
to a piece of shit money planet
made by those
who never had any creative fun.
sooner or later
police will come
to your door
and send your kids
to kill or be killed
there is nothing worst
than forgetting
it is as if part of you
never existed
living so long is boring.
I think we were not meant
to live so long.
I can not remember
most of my life anyway
because it is so long.
the only thing that makes sense
is to be with the kids.
now i just have to
invent some stuff to do
to fill few more years.
I miss war.
there is nothing
faster than a poem
when it comes to
telling the truth
about the universe
on facebook i saw
an image of a poem
which appeared like mine
but it was a poem
by ren hang.
i got scared
that he did the same thing
i wanted to do
but before me.
i felt angry at him
and sorry for my laziness.
but then i read that he died
and i felt safe again.
also i read few of his poems
and they seemed depressing
and my poems are not depressing.
so i won in my mind for now.
if someone
had shown me
a business plan
for a human life
i would have never invested
in my own life
and would skip
my own birth.
love has
an amazing power
to make
the most useless
and stupid person
into a laser focused
go getter.
without it
we would all be
couch potatoes.
long time ago
poems manipulated
the readers
with cheap emotions
and distracted
with useless rhyme.
well, not anymore.
relative only to the entire universe
focused only on the smallest particles
yet accessible for anything and everything
time transformed
a perfect human
into a fear algorithm
by erasing his
empathy and vision
josefer asked me to write a poem
about the mexican revolution of 2017
my advice to all mexican revolutionaries
is to quit the revolution
and open an offshore company
and not let the illusion of a nation
enslave them
and fight for the country of one
