The Faux Pas Press #85

DRINKING
If drinking is the only release for our youth, the only solace to which we must run, instinctively our urges are numbed by the products our parents both condemn and condone; our virtue is a joke bottled behind supply and demand, behind the good job, behind the functioning economy. You children are looking for the next cool thing to drink. I’m not just talking about alcohol – 44% or whatever proof booze their sucking on right now. I’m talking about the fountains pouring soda, pouring coke, pouring hours worth of superficial energy on which to jive before the fall. I drink absinthe because it is cool. I eat only meat, vegetables, and fats – completely expelled grains from my diet and I feel as though there is some secret being hidden from the masses. If this is not a conclusion I’ve come to intellectually – then instinctively I’ve come to understand the Universe and universal law. I am here to quiet everything down. If by The Faux Pas Press it must done – then so be it. There is nothing to report on news channels. Everything has been said. Every opinion has already been given. I’m ready to start the revolution. I do this by drinking water and eating meat. I know. This is ridiculous. But I, along with a host of others, my gothic brethren if you will, have decided to become the Earth. Drinking we do not as recreation but as ritual.
