Diluted Reality is an abstract piece in which I flip the script where black
becomes white and white becomes black and all the connotation that goes
along with it is also switched. I addressed this to the people who have
the power and to the people who are prostituting themselves to these companies
for money and whatever else the corporations have to offer. The Paradigm
was everything that was in the beginning of the poem, the story I just told
and how the paradigm has become a catch 22 where we can't do anything about
our situation. A situation where we just let technology get the best of
us and where we can't go back to being primitive. Instead of being automatic
we are forced to be systematic. We can't do anything. We can't fight the
system without becoming part of the system. The cocks symbolize the male
dominance in our society and another form of power. Glocks mean guns and
they represent the violence that the system uses to oppress people and exert
their power. The clocks mean time. Time is the thing that is stopping us.
We don't have enough time and we can't manipulate time to go forward or
backward. These the three things that encompass why society is the way
that it is. These are the three obstacles that we must overcome. |
