very briefly, let me explain the race

guppies and seahorses

Oh Danger danger

danger girl, danger boy...

...oh, please.

 

you had the plastic teeth hiding the real fangs

i peeled tham off and man!!, how yr breath smells

 

 

you played the danger boy, danger girl dance

"i'm so dangerous, my poison will love you"

oh snake tar pit

howdy charlatan, in yr newest manga dress

stop yr chanting,

quit yr mediocre mantra manufacturing

 

it's so convenient in our little hobbit scene

when the population sinks below two thousand

and creative in-breeding flourishes

people, oh you stupid people

start looking around and looking the other way

no, look here...

 

snapping my fingers in yr eyes

look look look lookloookloook

lookee here.

 let me explain how this brat race is going

 

here, it's no wonder

Big fish in little pond syndrome continues to breed

snarky sharks and bitchy blowjobfish

i'm a seahorse in water filled with glowy yuppy-guppies

 

on yr plate, i'm tako surrounded by hamachi

 

danger boys, oh danger girls

yr drag races are flawed and i've got to grease the roads

we can't keep moving, we can't swim onward to new ground

if we just keep doing laps in this polluted scene

 

don't ask me to join yr crafty klunky inhibitive club house

i'm too busy, i've gotta wash this paint from my lips

leave the mic on the stage, i'll get to it later

 

and watch as the rest of you slowly become parodies of yrselves

I usually, resist reviewing pieces I don't completely understand, because I don't know how helpful a review can be. That said, I like a lot of the language. Definitely like the readable twitter-ease. My favorite line was "quit yr mediocre mantra manufacturing".
