shhhh



"You feel like somethings coming,
but it never does."--Bob Dylan
voices of our times
never ask,
the better questions,
someone speaks of a new singer,
in terms of style, commercial viability, etc..
never asking,
"What does he have to say?"
"What is he or she about?"
it's as if substance is a dead..
all that matters is commercial appeal..
American Idol tomfoolery.. ( cool word)
but i digress..
new culture doesn't want singers to say anything,
justs want them to sell beer, trucks, watches, jeans, crosses...
make no waves,
safe..
spiritual mummies..
spiritual dummies
soul is mistaken for rhythm and beats,
shake your money maker,
shhh..
