Mr. Crimson Speaks to the Youth of Today!

More poetry, this time from an old friend from college, Joshua Neff, Action Librarian. This piece originally appeared on his blog, Goblin Cartoons.

It speaks to me of personal revolution, which strikes me as a very Dionysian thing.

Mr. Crimson Speaks to the Youth of Today!

wage your war on the streets
& wear sapphires on your feet
& disassemble your beliefs
& give aid to their relief
& exhaust your chocolate treats
& let loose your funky beats
& wear opals on your feet
& retake the gentrified streets
& overthrow the richest thief
& reassemble your beliefs
& let your dreams be incomplete
& never let your friends be beat
& don’t be salty when you’re sweet
& make our wars grow obsolete
