Fuck. Damn this is good. It should be on the front of every newspaper, website, and any place people's eyes are focused.

The writer's task, right? Make us see. Which means you can't look away. All you can do is make it somehow noteworthy so the nitwits look up from their nitwitting for a minute. You no doubt know Robert Earl Keene, who does that well. Not new, still good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3XilxSQm1S8 Thank you.
