Entropy

“. . . That's what my work is about, the collapse of everything, of meaning, of language, of values, of art, disorder and dislocation wherever you look, entropy drowning everything in sight . . . "

Great poem! I love the "drowning in entropy." It describes what's going on around me as my house slowly collapses.

PS: I'm running away from home today, wanna come along?

It somehow reminds me of one of my favorite movies.
