i have to write 1500 words

on visual culture

on socio-political implications on art

or lack thereof

or idealistically

or bread on the table

or cake

and who gets the cake

when other can’t even have bread

and who paints a masterpiece with their cake

or at least with it in their belly

and who leaves their masterpiece undone, never finished or not existing

because they don’t have any bread

and who takes the bread and realizes within it contains all of the beauty in the world

and who is dissatisfied with cake; thinks it should have more icing

and who sneezes into their cake hoping to plant seeds but the plants that grow are CUBES

and whose sneezes are blue and gold and sprout genius

i hate academic papers
