The chorus cries "Where's the author? Throw him out! Rubbish!".
~Kurt Schwitters.
When I was 14, I wrote this on my door in thick, black permanent marker.
My mother was not impressed.
But I loved it.
When I was 15, I wrote underneath on a postit.
" Dada is nihilistic,
It has no meaning,
no soul,
I may as well be the reincarnated soul of this movement,
I think I will self destruct.
And be born again, unbeknownst,
into a different shade of misery"
Dramatic much?
Also spellcheck is pretty sure unbeknownst isn't a word.
