Quote Challenge Day One

Nominated. Thanks, Sheen.

Rules: For 3 consecutive days, write a poem related to a quote you dig. Nominate three WP bloggers whom you’d like to do the same. Touch yourself. (OK, I added that rule.)

Quote #1: Let us destroy, let us be good, let us create a new force of gravity.
-Francis Picabia, 1918 December – Dada 3

This is a punk rock song to incite an existential riot. Scream it to your parents, to your boss, to the wall, to the moon:
————————————-
Let us destroy!          Let us be good!
Let us create a new force of gravity!

I’m pent up!
I’m pinned down!
I’ve lost touch!
I’m spun round!

I can’t look into mirrors any more!
Frustrated,
waiting for someone
to even the score!

Tear it apart!

Let us destroy!          Let us be good!
Let us create a new force of gravity!
Let us wake up!          Let us be free!
Let us be shocked by this reality!

I become you!
You become me!
Nothing but Truth!
Our in-fin-i-ty!

I can’t walk out my front door anymore!
The sky falls so much faster than before!

Tear it apart!

Let us destroy!          Let us be good!
Let us create a new force of gravity!
Let us not cringe!          Let us just be!
Let us question what we think we need!
Let us destroy!          Let us be good!
Let us create a new force of gravity!
Let us destroy!          Let us be good!
Let us create a new force of gravity!
Let us destroy!          Let us be good!
Let us create a new force of gravity!
