inspired by another poem

culture is not your friend. culture is like an evil master who forces you to carry his own water, but instead of it being water that you carry it is another person’s identity. you carry this parasitic sense of self in a giant cavernous chest where your own autonomous self used to humbly dwell. instead of sweating bullets you perspire blood, and little fat men with vulture heads swarm around you to collect the bounty, and take it back to some off hand pawn shop in a deserted town where your sacred vitality is traded in for crumbs not unlike the one's hanzel and gretle used to find their way home. and given to the dinosaurs that run this country usee it as an infusion of life so their dried up limbs can continue to hold on for bare life to any illusion of control they pretend to have in this world.
