We, Ambivalent Firsthand Mental Historians, United in the Wake of our Fallen Ideal

Get to the point

Rush it

I'm so tired of the playfulness

The winks to wit and older, golder times

No less shallow but infinitely more twisted


 

We're losing our minds,

With each day

With each headline

We're giving up time to history's second page


 

I'll move to the UK

Or maybe to Paris

Perhaps to India;

No.


 

To Sao Paulo

Where I'll watch the dichotomy drag

And mar the ugly line 'twixt the sad and the accepting

My tower of swaying ideals the anchor

For the memories not far past

Where the Lady of Liberty saturated the negative

Of my youngster persona


 

Join the council of ambivalent firsthand mental historians

We'll shock the New World, babe, and wontcha sing along with me?

In tune and out of reality; Just the way I metcha
