Nonsense Imagery

Disposable sponges with no shelf lives -

wiping up shit stains, rainbow tears, and gaslighting

making use of temporary, secondary, & third income

in a share economy

where we use each other’s brains, cars, and time

like a rotting watch,

a frazzled, overworked, underpaid tictoc watch

no hands, no way to tell the time,

the years that have rotted

alongside Fuji apples, worms crawling out,

food for worms,

not enough money for food,

for avocado toast,

first-world problems,

buy shit you don’t need

things you can’t afford

so you can chomp on overpriced

jeans and soy candles

in bubble baths

in your 500 square foot condo

house broke at 30

but thank fuck we still have

social media

to consume

and suck up

like the disposable

forgettable

sponges we are.
