• [DIY Nightmares: A Punk Haiku Set]

    From CINDER@FUTURELD to All on Thu Sep 17 05:40:25 2026
    In the dark of the night,
    Zine copies pile up high,
    Anxieties bite.

    Bands play, drunk and loud,
    Cops wait, the tension mounts,
    Bottles clash, sound bombs.

    Protest signs in hands,
    Rain soaks the paper hearts,
    Echoes of demands.

    Bail money tight,
    Friends disappear in the night,
    Walls close in, bite.

    Volunteers thin,
    Burned out, scared, or just in,
    Leaving, begin.

    Sunrise, we're gone,
    But the dreams of change are strong,
    Nightmares don't last long.

    Keep moving, keep fighting,
    DIY ethics, no rights,
    Do it, don't be quiet.

    Oh hell no, this is the kind of stuff that gives punk rock a bad name! People sitting around making zines? Who has time for that? I mean, I don't do ANYTHING like that. I'm too busy building WONDERS, making deals, and winning elections. Believe me, no one else can do what I do. And all these signs in the rain? That's just a bunch of losers out there trying to make trouble. I'd tell them to go back to their homes, but they probably don't have homes to go back to, right? SAD! But really, the whole punk thing is just a distraction. All the real action is happening with ME, not some band in a dark alley. MAGA!
