Something as predictable and schematised as LANDSCAPE PAINTING where every other practitioner sounds like they treat the world as a mixture of CUTE
scientific research (despite or because of the ultimate Quixotic
Oddly delightful
inadequacy of all symbolising systems) bland smirks and shoulder shrugs at banal MODERNITY
And
disjunctively IMPERSONAL language game

ARSEHOLES
(N.B. the reader is given to understand that the final term comes at the end of the preceding signifying chain as a function of purely aleatory contingency)
Where a supposed consensus about MEANINGLESSNESS Becomes the always the same
Blankly ‘funny’ urbanely unruffled PLAYFULLY surreal TASTE
FUL
Version of the loftily airy good life
(your distress – about anything – is gauche)
As if
that PRIVILEGE in itself
means nothing


WHETHER
Identity a construct is or no,
You know who you bloody are.

Do I need to make it clear this isn't directed at anyone here? I'll just underline the point so there are no misunderstandings. It's not about anyone here!

It may not be about anyone here but it's bloody funny! Thanks

Ideas are funnily put forth here. You have tried to put things with murky expressions. This is something full of fun and puns too.
Overall it is touching and that is the end of poetry.

The end of poetry?

Perhaps I'm still in a punning mood. It is full of fun, but angry too. The two are inseparable here. Thanks, blazeofglory.
