Jeffree Skewes #139 Miffed

there is some truth in mythology

we called out the duds
others earn accolades

like it was going out of fashion
the found-outs were placed in the red column
pending ones continued in black and drew ire
sum unknown due to those who sat on the fence
water and taxes trickle downhill
magpies only swoop in September
humans superior

occasionally the curator gets it right
bank execs are paid not unreasonably enough
the tall poppy syndrome is exaggerated

books, hard copy and libraries are doomed
contemporary art is the art of now
the Australia council is never too top-heavy
coal is unrelated to anything
avocado numbers are in decline
math is the most useful of all school subjects

video replays are the way going forward
too much leisure the root of all evil
most of us want to work forever
a smart set of pegs and smile gets the deal done

childcare is not a by-product of capitalism's growth
time is longer or shorter depending on the gain
rap is a mere transition in music history
wood is by far the best material
chocolate a luxury never deserved before breakfast

building roads is better than investing in art
what goes up must come down
all water is molecularly the same
myths are in danger of becoming legend
one-hit wonders actually have more

poetry is on the rise
America and the UK will get better
growing lawn has never been bigger
modern children are naturally smarter

no amount of calling out politicians helps
the highest mountains are closer than you think
radio shock-jocks read from a script
flossing is quite difficult for seniors
more hospitals are not the solution
overcrowding make sense

the best years are ahead
apples in lunches last longest
fashions is not really a thing anymore

if you count slowly the pressure comes down
dogs are smarter than cats
baldness a sign of virility
history is solid
mindfulness the new grey
bucket lists are thing of the past
Christmas has never been bigger

TV sport is the new physical activity
vegans will rise up

myths are a curse
