The PigPen's Resplendent Kaffeeklatsch

[wasellajam]

How's it shakin colonists of bacon?

 I was like Who is Shakin and what did I miss. 

I did a middle of the night edit and a morning short crit. On my second cup. I'm looking forward to my fourth day in a row mostly solo, rare and cherished.
How are you all doing? Everyone have power?

are you asking whether I have agency?  Because I am in a mood to argue today that none of us truly have agency at all but it is the illusion of agency (like the false democracy of deciding once every four years who runs the country but being powerless to do anything the rest of the time) that keeps individuals in society from a constant state of revolution - like the artifice in 1984 but constructed properly by letting people's false sense of agency override their need for actual agency.

Oh, you mean electrical power.  Yah, still kickin'

 I hear you!

also, noticed both the crit and the edit.  I doff my cap to thee, lady

Don't doff so fast, I had to go over mine with changes already and I'm avoiding a crit because I find the poem depressing and don't want to reread it again. Chickenshit.
