These days we give in
Buy things to make ourselves look like the people on the screens of our better-not-be-pre-paid-phones rose gold like those acrylics you spent so much money on but didn't correct her when she said girl you'll post about it later better to make yourself uncomfortable or else they might be doing the posting and we want @'s but not indirect's because these days not all attention is good attention because it took our beloved social media a little too long to realize that he had filmed a dead body but we forgive and forget because these days "we all fuck up" and isn't that entertainment and don't we just want to be entertained and doesn't he have those shoes we want, we want to wear Gucci because it's in those songs we are supposed to listen too, the ones we spend too much money on, the ones our parents blame for the violence that their generation has created and these days weren't our parents the ones who told us not to build walls and these days didn't our parents vote for someone who wants to build up walls and aren't we to blame? And isn't this a question that will be passed down for generations? And doesn't that make it bible and doesn't that make it true and isn't this going to be a legacy filed with the mistakes of what we can be, what we can achieve, and doesn't that possibility of infinite ability make us god, isn't this our bible, isn't this a rhetorical universally passed down oath for the proud? Isn't this our legacy.
