i like metaphors too much
to make another morrissey
and the morality of my mind
keeps me from becoming kerouac
and though i think karl marx
and communism make sense somehow
my modern realism and american life
don't allow for allen ginsberg's ideals
and leave me with a hollow howl
in a generation of upbeat yuppies
with our white tee-shirts hidden
under replicas of retrospective protest
like "meat is murder" mass-produced
and tour tees from before i was born
