The Flaw You Worship |
It’s a character flaw that they are blind to in themselves and the characters |
they create |
The heroes and protagonists of their literature and films reek of the same |
oversight |
An uncharacteristic value that if they saw would instantly deepen and broaden |
their perspective |
That’s the flaw and blindsight of privilege and power |
The intelligence that can be metered out by the type of comfort one would |
choose to prolong and protect |
An heirloom |
I watch shitty movie after shitty movie thinking, how can they not see this? |
Until it dawned: this was the flaw they worshipped |
Blame for the refugee |
Cross as an effigy |
Scandals and treachery |
Pan placed against the sea |
Dance to the answer beat |
Question the century |
Judge turned to referee |
Off side but on the beat |
False crowd the boss of me |
You’re not the boss of me |
You’re not the boss of me |
You’re not the boss of me |
You’re not the boss of me |
You’re just the president |
No one elected me |
Bitch I’m a resident |
Now I ain’t the flaw you worship |
I ain’t the flaw you worship |
I ain’t the flaw you worship |
I ain’t the flaw you worship |
I ain’t the flaw you worship |
I ain’t the flaw you worship |
I ain’t the flaw you worship |
I ain’t the flaw you worship |
We were born without firewalls |
There’s no way of keeping unwanted information and viruses out of our system |
You were always a ghost in the machine |
A clip that buzzed the hump |
Seek no further |
The noise came from here |
What is the connection between a ulcrum of drums |
And a constellation |
A wireless message in music |
