Print: Intangible / Existential psychic turmoil / Having to explain things

Intangible, RTomens, 2025

Excuse me? No, I'm not sure...

Everyone's 'all over the place' - have you noticed? Only right now we have the excuse of 'It's Christmas'. Come the New Year, the only excuse is existential turmoil due to the psychic chaos caused by:

misinformation
politics
the social network notworking
too much information
viral mental health 'issues'
the continued existence of Taylor Swift

I forgot to tell you what concrete poetry is when you asked a few months ago. Then I realised you were being lazy by not using Google, so I didn't bother answering. 

I wasn't making concrete poetry before the internet, so I would have had to answer. Imagine having to actually explain something to someone! You're too young to know what it was like. Such hard work, formulating answers whilst inebriated in a bar, perhaps, or high from two coffees in a cafe. It's a wonder anyone knew anything. We read books, though. Magazines and newspapers. 

I'll continue this history lesson next time. Meanwhile...

TTFN!
