The human experiencial landfill

 Through life we are unquestioning creatures
scuttling through busy and idle routines and screen´s new features

Ruled by well designed populism
Neon bright marketable ideas lit up by the base
tearing out your tastebuds and engineering a collective face

This system creates convenient shortcuts
An algorithm that makes you, your biggest fan
our past rusts our eyes through
our tongue and heart too

Through the unquestioning void of our true bias
Our known and familiar surround design
The software helps us build it
and we walk out holding billboards written -individual

We walk out like a conveyor belt´s exit
with individual printed to our foreheads in the most beautiful fonts
We walk out identical

Ruled by well designed populism
we are the market internally and externally
we brainwash ourselves into believing a uniqueness
convenient shortcuts to the products we are sold

Altogether the past rusts our eyes
our culture rots our skins
our consumerism infects us with the same virus

And we get into the limelight of our own comfort zone

celebrating ourselves from computer screen lit shadows
we are the glowing mess of the social media foodchain
our essence a grey sludge resting on the chemist´s bench


To be mixed into a convenient recipe
and then sold as a currency
