hipsters is not a derogatory term
it means Love left you
a long enough time ago
that you needed to know to be slow
because every world sped past you
fast enough to fuck yourself, a mother
and take yourself, a father to the zoo
beets put under the eyelids
make most cry blood
I heard herds of zombie humans
were where werewolf materialists dressed
and paraded from ghost forests
like deciduous leaves becoming
flowing social fucking lepers
and all you had to do
was take away their micro-brew
tell them their princely whiskeys
are pauper pisses and demand
they tie rubber bands
in their beards before they enter
an abode and to make sure
they call themselves
Captain Lou Albano
to say out loud
that they are often imitated
but never duplicated
because, being so unusual
isn't so unusual anymore ...
