Quote by Brian Tierney

“When I check my phone to remember I exist and I shake it and shake it I shake myself, as if to clear the Etch A Sketch of my face. If I’m dead inside how would I know, how would a bulb check its own filament.”

“To make the people happy, lash them with guns. The great words are empty, the high-sounding ones, Fraternity, Justice, the Mission of France, Liberty, Progress, Human Rights, Tolerance; Socrates was mad; read Lelut and learn; Christ, demagogue with a socialist turn, Is much over-rated; the cannon is God, Paixhans is its prophet; Earth, throw up your sod! Man's ultimate aim is to learn how to kill. The sword is the way to keep the people still.”

“WHAT TO DO WITH YOUR PAST Serve it with lemons and curdled milk with shortbread biscuits make the day gray spots of rain. Make a quilt out of the villains crochet the heroes together in a hat Wear the hat. Use the quilt as a picnic blanket. Bring your friends. Watch the squirrels be tiny monkeys dare-deviling the trees. Exclaim things! Each lemon, sup of tea, cookie is a bite into the future / will digest, exit, and swim. Digest. Exit. Swim. Drink the curdled milk and get sick watch your friends clean up hold your hair back / hat on hand you a tissue. When you wash the vomit out of the villainous quilt each time it gets weaker Picnic often.”

“Fully Vaccinated (The Sonnet) I am alive, well and fully vaccinated, Despite pledging allegiance to no authority. Listening to experts is not complacency, It's just an act of common sense humanity. You trust bus-drivers to get you to work, You trust pilots to fly you to places. Then why are you afraid to trust scientists, Without science we'd still be living like savages. State doesn't need to put microchip in your body, Future tech isn't needed to rule prehistoric veggies. Your dependency on social media is sufficient, To observe, manipulate and exploit your life stories. Be cautious of your online footprint, not inoculation. Be accountable and get your shot trampling all hesitation.”
