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.

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.

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.
