Syntagma
This is the arrangement. I say, you do.
How long will it take you to learn? I rule.
Be guided by your own tension. Or die.
We could kill you. This is the arrangement.
Privilege repetition. Create a myth.
Empty the square of its circularity.
Forget all this nonsense egotism.
Democracy will lie with tyranny.
Tyranny will down democracy. Fuck you.
Why are you taking this attitude, terrorist?
Organise your particular stretch of time.
