Nietzsche reduced to beats


some young diva

(this month's flavor)

sings a song over

the diner's muzak


spreading the word that

whatever doesn't kill you

makes you stronger...


can you imagine?

is it right for Nietzsche

to be heard on a dance floor

of some club in Queens...or wherever?


and if it is who's to say otherwise?

only those who haven't seen the world

resolved to their satisfaction have a beef


somehow or other

someone's reality is bent by the news

irony aside for those of us who do remember that source...


and if the oracle is forgotten

the word somehow isn't...and endures...


listen up...
