Pseudo Postmodernity

Pseudo Postmodernity

A Poem by Coco Kiwi

You're black, I'm blue so
What's to it but a hue?
Foregrounding the problematic while
Oblivious to the unconscious symptomatic

Veiled under false impressions
Of transcendental amelioration
Yet yielding no more than prominence
Of appearance in fast acceleration

Holding the pretense of the past in
High regard without regard 
To the application of diction to 
Veil the truth in apparent fiction
