TheRevolutionWillNotBeTelevised

The revolution will not be televised.
There will be no infomercial for salvation, available with the scan of a MasterCard. And you can’t cheat your way to the top, hiding tricks up your sleeves if you’ve mastered cards. Poker face set, hiding behind the facade of a mask. Hiding emotions through molded features because behind that second skin…you’re worried.

Because the revolution will not be televised.
No starter gun for the rage, and no signal for the riots. No redemption up for auction on programs programmed to give you the best bang for your buck as you bid on bullshit they force-feed you and shovel into your face like farmhands.

The revolution will not be televised.
All the media does is tell us lies that ride over broadbands and wireless networks. SOS’s surfing over airwaves like angels with no sense of direction just looking for emancipation, dodging kamikaze radio signals packed with propaganda. And there’s nothing we can do but wait.

Because the revolution will not be televised.

What's really good.

Welcome to the home of Paragraphs from a Polkadotted Purple Panda! Here you will find any work I feel like sharing, which will range from anything art related. One day I might feel like writing a poem (which is most days), then another I might feel like recording a song and putting it up. On this page, you will see poetry, songs, graphic designs, and any other form of art I am capable of, so enjoy the read and be sure to tell me what you think! I'll be doing my best to upload something new every few days by the latest, but be sure to stick around and watch my story unfold.
