The Mezunian

Die Positivität ist das Opium des Volkes, aber der Spott ist das Opium der Verrückten

es por eso que me llamen señor celsius

in this middle 35th
i am no closer to death than i e’er was
but i have ne’er felt so alive
i have ne’er felt mo’ anxious
but have ne’er before mo’ embraced its fueling fire
& i have finally grown tired o’ my 2-year-long hibernation
& am ready to wean off the meds that kept me safe
in this middle 250th
things have ne’er been mo’ decayed
& yet there is revolution in the wind
after years o’ sponging
years o’ working
i have finally earned freedom
— & others had to free me to teach me —
no apologies
no excuses
no dependencies
no debts to pay
me condenaron a veinte años de aburrimiento
por intentar cambiar el sistema desde dentro
ya voy, voy a recompansarlos
primero tomamos seattle…
…y entonces tomamos d.c.
i have ne’er been mo’ exposed to the elements
& yet ne’er in my life have i been less suicidal
for as it is said
fear o’ death makes one most dead
& coolness before death makes one most alive
& in fever they sang:
insano ehi-sano-sano-sano
ehi-sano ehi-sano insano
ho chiesto chiesto, ¿per me moriresti?
sano ehisano superstar
