ORDINARY RUIN-PICTURE



Through the decrees of cruel indifference Like a deaf and dumb shadow The wounded Man stumbles like a deaf and dumb shadow: the detail of passing It would be well to forget, deciphered! Existence: a forced waiting at the gate of another unknown dimension! Appearance-lessness for pop-culture Celebrity-Fiasco self-serving self-indulgence! Man-hunting, gullible girls flailing around like precious commodities, disposable trophies!

  On the diva-make-up of faces may soon damp crevices stretch, Which the cosmetics of gold-phonals can seldom conceal! The awakening of progress is still but groping and squinting! Shadows are nesting on the conscience of the seers, that they may learn cautious fears!

The years become in us wilted rose-petals - and had we been better to be breakers, and caracane wanderers: world-destroying transience may take hold for the umpteenth time! Obscene provocative obscenities are now laughed at by all, when their humanity owes a firm responsibility! Public safety risks for this Age have long since ceased to apply!

Lying promises and false promises are made to everyone by the bribable tabloid media! The fragments of moments are indefinable, because no one is looking for new holes and excuses for the present state of affairs on the lazy, accustomed to comfort! Prevention is essential! Every hesitant date, every diverted scene of acquaintance, degenerates into sensual stunts! Delirious gibberish, vile thief-talk instead of the language of euphemistic compliments! - Is that the trend these days?! -Laying like bits of wilted flowers in the incubator chambers of mothers' babies!
